Dear Friends,
I have recorded a voicer for you -- with some wonderful news. Thanks for giving it a listen.
For those who cannot listen at this time, here is a quick summary:
We have received two major bequests, totaling $600,000. Please please keep all of our benefactors, living and deceased, in your prayers.
We will apply $150,000 toward the necessary work on our parish center roof. We need to match this with an additional $150,000, which we hope to raise between now and August. Please consider generously supporting this effort.
With the rest of the bequest we will pay off the loan from the Dominican Friars (given by them to the Parish in 2020) and make a large payment toward our building mortgage.
Bishop Knestout has graciously exempted all funds donated toward the roof from Diocesan tax.
Thank you for your prayers and your generosity!
Peace,
Fr. WalterÂ
