Enhancing our Parish, Advancing our School

As of: October 29, 2008

Parishioner support for the Parish Capital Campaign has been very successful.  To date, we have raised $2,264,360 in pledged commitments payable over the next 5 years!  This very generous response has come from 432 of our 1,100 households, that is, 40% of our families.

We thank all families who have already responded to the campaign. Several parishioners have indicated that they are still thinking about the gift they will make. If you are not among the 40% of the parish families who have made a pledge to this extraordinary opportunity, there is still time for you to do so.

There are campaign brochures, special pledge cards, and reply envelopes in the church vestibule for you to pick up after Mass.

Our goal is 100% participation.

We are all asked to make a gift at whatever level is appropriate to you and your family. Thank you for your anticipated support of this important effort to enhance our Parish and advance our School ministry.

Prayer for the Week

Father in heaven, ever-living source of all that is good, from the beginning of time you promised us salvation through the future coming of your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. Help us to drink of his truth & expand our hearts with the joy of his promises, so that we may serve you in faith & in love & know forever the joy of your presence. We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Grace

GraceThroughout the centuries, Catholics have been saying a grace—prayer of gratitude—before meals whether alone or together in groups. The most common such prayer runs like this: "Bless us, O Lord, and these thy gifts which we are about to receive through thy bounty, through Christ our Lord. Amen."

Here is a grace prayer used by the Magnificat Women’s Group in Phoenix. It is sung to the tune of "Edelweiss," made famous for Americans by its prominence in the musical The Sound of Music: "Bless our friends, bless our food, Come, O Lord, and be with us. May our talk glow with peace, may our lives be united. Friendship and love, may they bloom and grow, bloom and grow forever, bless our friends, bless our lives, bless us now and forever."




 


I have chosen and consecrated this house, says the Lord, that my name may be there forever.    – 2 Chronciles 7:16
