Friends,

Thank you SO MUCH for your generous donations in support of our “Birthday Roof” project. We didn’t raise $10,000 as we were hoping to, in order to get the full matching grant on offer. We raised WAY MORE THAN THAT!!! Our parish family and friends gathered more than $12,000 today in support of our “Birthday Roof”. Thank you, and congratulations to all! This is yet another example that should strengthen us as we prepare to begin construction of our new parish church: our zealous labor + God’s blessing = we can accomplish essentially anything as a parish family. Let us burn this into our memory, so that we will not doubt going forward. Thank you all, and thank God for this great success for our parish family!

Fr. Gregory

P.S. This worked so well that I have to start thinking about what to ask for next year. :)
