Created for the 2023 Diocese of Rockford Annual Appeal, this 5-minute, 40-second video centers entirely on the bishop’s message, delivered via teleprompter, to inspire the faithful to support the mission of the Church. With the theme “Know Him. See Him.”, the video visually reinforces the bishop’s words through carefully curated b-roll and graphics.

The imagery highlights ministries and moments that bring the Gospel to life — from Catholic schools and youth ministry to parish outreach, faith formation, and charitable works. It was designed for both parish Mass presentations and online sharing, ensuring that the message reached as many parishioners as possible.

Beautiful graphics, purposeful pacing, and reverent visuals work together to communicate the theme clearly, while showcasing the breadth of the diocese’s ministries and the impact of parishioners’ generosity.
