Dear Friends and Families of SVDP
This is “Commitment Sunday” and I call for a response from all our parishioners to step forward to support our parish with your Time, Talent, and Treasure. We belong to a great parish that is under the patronage of one of the greatest saints, namely, St. Vincent de Paul. I have sent out over six hundred letters, appealing for a response to fill in the commitment card and return it to the parish rectory.
”Ask not what your parish can do for you,
but what you can do for your parish.”
We need your help so that we can have a wonderful resurrection of our parish. Your investment is your involvement. We have been knocked hard by COVID in the last two plus years, and all its horrible effects. However, when the going gets tough, the tough get going.
I am reminded of a story about the two mice, upon seeing that their cheese had run out, they went in search for more cheese. Our cheese is running out and we need our parishioners to once again step forward to recover the spirit that we inherited from our parish elders.
Let us make this Sunday a day to remember, as the day we began our restoration by committing to pledging your support for the parish. Please send us the commitment card that you recently received and pledge your support today.
I would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate all our girls and boys who will be receiving Jesus for the first time through the sacrament of Holy Communion. Thanks to all the Moms and Dads of these wonderful students for helping to make this day possible.
Amen.
AMEN!
Fr. Mike Healy
Parish Administrator
