LIVING AND GIVING IN CHRIST
Thank you for your generosity and support of the Diocesan Living & Giving in Christ Appeal for
2020. As previously reported in the bulletin, we had set aside $25,000 in the Church budget to
cover any shortfall in our parish pledges for the annual Diocesan assessment. During our Stew-
ardship renewal in November, Father Gary asked if our parishioners could MATCH the $25,000.
Your response has been wonderful and we are only $1,844.00 short of completing that Match and
sending the Diocese the $25,000 budgeted for that purpose. St. Patricks will still have a balance
due the Diocese of $19,086.39 to meet the assessed goal of $206,111 for 2020. Please continue
to pray for our Church and the needs of the Diocese during these difficult times and consider con-
tinuing your financial support to meet our parish goal. Thank You!
