TGIF Men,
Two important things as we end our week.
1. A request from Mike Wallace. If anyone has some time TOMORROW, SATURDAY, OCT 9th, he will be doing part 2 of the Parish Center basement cleanout. 8:30 am. Thanks for any efforts you can provide.
2. Another shoutout-reminder on annual DUES.
As many of you know, our Holy Name Society is quite active in providing support to our parish community and for many associated causes - all in supporting our 3 S's of Spiritual, Service and Social. Much of what we provide comes from our personal labor of service and volunteerism.
The other aspect that we are proud to support is of financial nature. Over the years we can ALL be proud to provide monetary donations supporting the following:
- Berwyn Fire Company
- Dominic Coyle Sponsorship
- Eagle Eye Ministries
- Legacy of Life
- Focus Fellowship of Catholic University Students
- St. Monica's Giving Tree
- Layman's Retreat League
- Parishioners in need
- St. Edmond's Home for Children
- St. Francis Inn
- St. Gabriel Food Drive
- St. Monica Outreach Program
- St. Monica Women's Society
- St. Monica Youth Group
- Xavier Society for the Blind
We could not do this with out your support of both annual dues, and of course our annual fund raiser - Team Trivia Night.
As you all know, due to the Covid pandemic, we had to cancel last years Team Trivia event, thus limiting our ability to support some financial donation requests.
The HNS board is asking each member to support the HNS with a minimum of just $15 for our fiscal year; 2021/2022. This will help all our efforts to provide financial assistance when and where needed. Checks written out to, "St. Monica's HNS".
You should have received a specific collection envelope for this need for the month of September and October. If not, just simply right a check to St. Monica's Holy Name Society and direct it to the St. Monica's rectory. Clearly mark the envelope, "Holy Name Society Dues".
Thank you in advance for your support.
Have a great weekend everyone.
Prosit
