                                  CATHOLIC MINISTRIES APPEAL UPDATE
Thank you for the donations to this year's Appeal. Your kindness supports so
many important programs across the diocese. Once again, your pledged dona-
tions have exceeded the goal for the parish, and so in receiving a portion of the
money donation in excess of that $31,530 goal, and based on pledges made to
date, we expect the parish will receive nearly $2900. Our stated plan for use of
the funds that come back to the parish is to equip with furniture and technology
the renovated St. Bernadette Hall. We will soon acquire certain items to enable multimedia video and audio
presentations, furniture for events in support of the faith formation, ministry and commission meetings held in
the building, a multifunction printer/copier, window curtains and shades, and a refrigerator to house refresh-
ments for meeting and event attendees. If you would like to tour the renovated building, or to inquire about
making donations of the needed supplies, please contact Ed Bayliss through the parish office.
