**Thanks to Friends of Catholic Charities for Another Great Event!**

With more than 1,000 Catholic Charities supporters in attendance – including the newly appointed Bishop to the Diocese of Dallas, the Most Reverend Edward J. Burns and the 61st Mayor of the City of Dallas, the honorable Mike Rawlings – the 19th Annual Bishop’s Gala proved to be a powerful fundraiser.  Event Chairs Steve and Betty Suellentrop hosted an evening of excitement with an exquisite dinner, live auction, wine and pearl pull, and a performance by legendary rock band Huey Lewis & The News, raising $1.3 million to support Catholic Charities’ programs and services.

Major underwriters included CHRISTUS Health, John and Michele Stephens, Frost Bank, Steve and Betty Suellentrop, Mike and Mary Terry, and AT&T.

Make sure not to miss out on the fun next year!  Save the date:
