UNTIL HE COMES AGAIN, THIS IS OUR WORK – We are happy
to report that the good people of this parish are answering the call in
support of the Bishop’s Annual Appeal. Thus far, we have pledges
of $16,359.00 towards our parish goal of $30,867.37 and this is with
only 17% parish participation. This is most encouraging, but we
have a ways to go to realize 100% participation of our parish. If you
have not yet had the opportunity to make a pledge, please do so
ASAP. The needs of our diocese and individual parishes are great
and only by the support of the faithful can the various ministries
and programs remain available to so many in our diocese. Please
remember that any amount generated over our goal will be returned
to our parish.
