Please keep our candidates in your prayers.
A Letter from our Pastor
J uly 2020
Dear Friend,
“For every one of our brothers and sisters, especially the least, the most vulnerable, the defenseless and those in need, God’s very image is found.” Pope Francis
A recent report provided by the Diocese indicates that $33,845.00 has been pledged to the 2020 Annual Catholic Appeal against the parish goal of $47,000.00.
To those who have contributed, please accept my personal appreciation for your support and sacrifice. For those who have not yet contributed and are able to do so, I ask you to consider supporting the more than 30 essential ministries funded wholly or in part by the Appeal. No gift is too small to help those in need.
Some weeks ago, a pledge card and return envelope were mailed to you in a correspondence from Bishop Malooly. If you have misplaced your card, you can request another by calling the diocesan Development Office at 302-573-3120 or by going online at annualcatholicappeal@cdow.org under “How to Donate”.
Please prayerfully consider responding to this year’s Appeal, “Seeing Christ in the Faces of Others.” I pray that for those helped through the ministries supported by the Appeal, they will see the face of Christ in your goodness.
Gratefully,
Fr. Jay McKee
Rev. Jay R. McKee
Pastor
