NOTE from Ray Joyce, VOTF Executive Director – “One of the Many Voices”

Thank you!

I’ve only been on the job for a couple of weeks but I want to start out with a word of thanks. VOTF is for all intents and purposes a volunteer organization; affiliates, regional affiliates and coordinators, working groups, steering committees, subcommittees, national representative council, officers, and trustees are all volunteers along with nearly all the help at the national office. In addition, the few paid staff/consultants, also regularly volunteer additional time and/or donate resources. This movement simply could not exist without the time and talent of so many dedicated volunteers. Thank you.

I’d also like to thank those of you who have contributed your financial resources, your treasure, to VOTF. Despite the ingenuity of our volunteers, there are only so many items we can barter. Your continued donations allow us to help expand this movement in order to meet our goals and honor our mission statement.

I’d also like to thank the many related organizations with whom we collaborate on a host of issues including supporting survivors and their loved ones, supporting the many good priests in their ministry and assisting in our efforts to reclaim and renew the Church through greater participation of the laity. Please know that everyone’s dedication to and support of this movement, large and small, visible and not so visible, are very much appreciated.

I look forward to meeting many of you at our Convocation over the weekend of July 8-10th in Indianapolis. If you’re unable to attend, please keep Voice of the Faithful in your prayers.
