Dear Saint Agnes Parishioners:
St. Agnes Parish ended the first half of the fiscal year with an operating loss of $13,929. With a few exceptions, our weekly Offertory Collection remained well below our budget for this period.
Once again, we are requesting that each working person donate $350 to the second part of the Grand Annual Collection.
We hope that those who are able, will respond by being even more generous. Your contributions will help cover the cost of upgrading the sound system and replacing the high ceiling lights in the Upper Church, and repairing the operating and
locking hardware on all Church doors.
We thank everyone who responded to the first part of our Grand Annual Appeal. Your generous contribution raised $66,520. This enabled our parish to complete capital projects totaling $19,282. These included updates to the live-streaming equipment, installation of AEDs and necessary electrical upgrades. As you can see, however, Grand Annual funds were primarily used to offset Operating Expenses.
The Grand Annual Collection remains an important source of financial support to our Parish. We ask, once again, that you continue to support St. Agnes Parish generously each week and contribute to the Grand Annual Collection, which will be taken up as the second collection on the weekend of April 10th and 11th.
Fr. Marc Bishop, Patricia Cullinane, Christopher Doyle, Shawn O’Rourke, Theresa Tanner, Valeria Ramdin, and Michelle Walata
