Thank You

Although the Commitment Weekend for Our Catholic Appeal Year 2022 campaign has ended, we would like to encourage all parishioners to participate in this year's parish pledge. We want to thank all those who have already made their commitment and those who plan to in the future.

If you need guidance with completing your pledge form, you can call or come to the Parish Office, and we will be happy to assist you. If you need or don't already have an envelope, you may get one at the Parish Office.

We especially want to thank Dr. Dan Renuart

and Jhon C. Daza, who participated and showed their commitment with their presentations last weekend.

Let us remember that as one family,

we trust in the Lord!
