St. Mark's Annual Report for 2015-2016
Dear Students, Parishioners and Friends: Attached is our 2015-2016 St. Mark's University Parish Annual Report. Some people have asked why this report comes so late after our fiscal year. The reason is that financial reporting aspects of our parish life are measured in a fiscal year (in our case, July to July), while other aspects of our parish life (Together in Mission, Sacramental Statistics and the like) are measured in a calendar year. In any event, I trust this report will give you all an accurate picture of what's going on at your parish.
This weekend (January 21-22) at all Masses, Finance Chair Loren McFarland will make a brief presentation on some highlights of our financial situation. We will have hard copies available for those in the parish that would like one during this presentation.
During this first month of the New Year, I want to thank you for your continued generosity to our student parish, and encourage our families and students to utilize parish envelopes and also consider establishing an on-line secure account to give on-line on a weekly or monthly basis. This new system is easy to use and is pretty much a "set and forget" process. You can also give one-time gifts and even make contributions for specific needs such as student ministry or religious education. To register for on-line giving, please click the link below.
God's Blessings in 2017!
Rev. John W. Love, V.F.
