We are deeply grateful to share that 185 parishioners and families contributed to this past year’s Annual Catholic Appeal, donating an impressive total of over $86,000. Thanks to your generosity, we have exceeded our parish goal once again, and everything above $67,815 will be returned by Bishop Brennan to assist with the current repairs of our beloved chapel. Thank you for your faithful stewardship of your God-given blessings.
