GOING ON VACATION?

If you are planning to be away on vacation this summer, and are a user of weekly envelopes, we encourage you to include those envelopes for those weeks you will be absent from the parish.  We depend on your regular contributions to maintain our weekly, ongoing expenses.  Remember, postdated cheques can be used anytime in the collection basket or by the Pre-Authorized Giving Plan.  Support can now be automatic through a pre-authorized giving plan available to our parish.  Brochures are available at the entrance of the church and at the parish office.  To participate please complete the authorization form.  Forms are on bookrack at the entrance of the church.  Forms may be returned in the collection basket next week or mailed to the parish office.  Thank you for your continued, generous support!

Have a safe and happy holiday!

Family of Faith Campaign and Upcoming Projects

First of all, I want to thank you for your on-going commitment to the Family of Faith campaign and for honoring the pledge that you have made. As you are aware a substantial portion of the funds raised will be used right in our parish and we are using some of it to pay for renovations and accessibility facilities.
After discussing and getting the approval of our finance council I have requested for $30,000 dollars from parish's share for a couple of projects. The funds will be used to replace the shingles on the rectory roof and for improved lighting in the church. The shingles on the rectory roof is in a bad shape and needs to be replaced. We will also be replacing the present light bulbs with LED lights in the church and rectory and will be doing some electrical upgrade as requested by our insurance company. 

These two projects are expected to be completed by the end of the month.

Fr. Jinto, C.S.C.
