GRAND ANNUAL APPEAL 2024
Dear Friends:
When you read our Annual Financial Report, you will receive a summary of the finances of Saint Patrick Parish during the last fiscal year, as well as an analysis of our parish’s overall financial health. It is a very positive report.
Last year, many parishioners responded generously to my request that we increase our contributions to Saint Patrick’s to meet inflationary increases in our expenses. As a result - and thanks to an unexpected major gift - we balanced our budget for the year!
To maintain this positive momentum, I ask that you join fellow parishioners in donating sacrificially to our upcoming Grand Annual Appeal, the most important collection we take up each year at Saint Patrick’s. The Grand Annual is crucial for the financial stability of Saint Patrick Parish.
The goal for our 2024 Grand Annual Appeal to raise at least $200,000. Your participation in this effort means a great deal to our community.
If you use weekly offertory envelopes, you will find one for the Grand Annual Appeal in the packet that was already mailed to you. If you do not use weekly offertory envelopes, you may pick one up in the welcome centers in the church. Grand Annual contributions may also be made through WeShare, our electronic giving system.
Thank you for your active support of Saint Patrick Parish!
In Christ,
Reverend Paul B. O’Brien
Pastor
