Ten years ago Food For Faith began as a blog and has developed into an online mission that reaches several thousand people across the globe every day, especially during Lent and Advent, and now through the Lectio Divina page, the Homily Studio, and the Rosary Reflections for October Page
We have worked to keep operating costs low, and your commitment to using the website and providing comments and prayer has kept us going and growing.
Now Food For Faith has become a Charitable Trust, managed by Trustees who have a passion for the mission of providing nourishing food for the faith of all who seek to grow in maturity in relationship with Jesus Christ. As Trustees Fr. Merv Duffy SM, Chris Fogarty and Catherine Gibbs oversee the mission freeing me from all administration and enabling me to focus on production of content.
There are significant costs associated with the maintenance and growth of a digital mission. Some popular elements of the site are expensive to make for example a three minute video clip costs several hundred dollars to produce.
To enable Food For Faith to continue to develop we need your generous financial support.
Many of the projects we have in mind depend on your support, and the projects on hold at present would need $250,000 to achieve in the next twelve months. Put simply, if we had these funds we could immediately move this mission to a new level of effective outreach.

Hi John
Firstly, can I say a huge thank you for your Food For Faith Lectio Divina. A friend of mine put me onto it and although I’m a Christian who is not a Catholic, I really love it. I specially love the focus on being relaxed and not feeling I have to figure out what the scripture means at that time, just on what Jesus is wanting to say to me through it at that particular time (I still struggle with that concept so the gentle admonishment to do so is very helpful).
I made a small gift to the ministry of $20 earlier this year via online banking and realised that in doing so there is no record of my address to send a tax receipt to (assuming it’s large enough to qualify!)
If it does, here are my details:

Many thanks and blessings
