FROM THE PASTOR’S DESKDear Parishioners,I would like to thank you for all that you have done and are continuing to do, in helping our Parish and our Archdiocese. One of the ways, in particular, are your gifts to Project Advance. This financial aid helps to reflect Christ’s love to the many people whose lives have been and
are touched by this on-going support, as witnessed throughout our Archdiocese and Holy Cross.
The enthusiastic response to our announcement of “an anonymous donor matching all pledges in the month of October” helped us not only to reach our parish goal of $100,000, but to surpass it, bringing our total amount to $108,520.
The “good news” is. . .We are still collecting donations till the end of December. You can always put your pledge into the collection basket, or drop it off in the parish office. Donations may also be made online at any time through www. http://rcav.org/project-advance/
Thank you again for all of your continued support of Project Advance. May the Lord bless you and your loved ones.
Yours in Christ,
Fr. Maciej Wos, SDSPastor
