Even with the assistance of our Spring Fling, and Easter and Christmas Collections, our parish takes a hard hit in the summer. Sparse pews, without a steady stream of donations, makes finances challenging. To rub salt in the wound, not everyone uses the "catch up envelopes" at the beginning of September, making June, July and August particularly difficult.
Our weekly totals have been predictably unpredictable. For this reason, last night the Parish Council asked that the Parish make a renewed push for enrollment in
WeShare, the online donation system.
Over the next few weeks you'll be hearing more about it. The members of the Council and I would not be doing our jobs if we didn't ask. We care about this Parish. We know you do, too. If you are going to be away on the weekends, sign up. It's easy. Visit
