Grand Annual Campaign Update
GOAL: $80,000
COLLECTED: $50,632
PERCENT COLLECTED: 63%
THANK YOU to all who have made a contribution to the Grand Annual campaign! We are so grateful for your generous response!
This collection is critical to maintaining the financial stability of our parishes. 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!
The campaign will be in effect until January 2023. We also offer an on-line donation option, for your convenience. It can be accessed here: Donate Now
We ask for your prayerful consideration and generosity.
