GRAND ANNUAL CAMPAIGN
We are at the halfway point in our campaign!
THANK YOU to all who have responded to our appeal and contributed to this campaign! This collection is critical to maintaining the financial stability of our parish. Our Weekly Offertory alone doesn’t cover all our operating expenses, so our Grand Annual collection is the bridge that allows us to do so. Especially at this time of year, this collection helps us meet the increased utilities and maintenance costs associated with the cold months coming ahead. Your help in reaching our goal is needed and most appreciated!
Goal : $80,000
$ Collected : $41,664
% Collected : 52%
The campaign will be in effect until January 2024. We also offer an on-line donation option, for your convenience.
We ask for your prayerful consideration and generosity!
