Memorial Day is one of the United States’ most poignant federal holidays. It’s a day to remember and honor those who have lost their lives in military service.

The national holiday reflects on those lost in service through many historic battles, including the Civil War, World War II, and more recent conflicts. Have a safe and happy holiday weekend.

As Christian stewards and people of faith, we are called to accept God's gifts gratefully, nurture them wisely, share them in charity, and give back to God a portion of what we have through our prayer, service, and generosity. It is important that each of us makes an EQUAL SACRIFICE relative to our means to support the Kingdom of God here on earth. If you have not already made your pledge, I ask you to prayerfully consider making your gift to our campaign online, using your credit card or debit card at GIVECSA.ORG or by calling 1(888) 331-8695. If you have never given before, I ask that you consider a one time gift - every dollar helps!

Sincerely yours in Christ, 

Fr. Craig
