Parish Stewardship Program 2010 |
This weekend we welcome Fr Peter Hudson, Parish Priest of Swan Hill who will be speaking at all our Response Weekend Masses. All parishioners including those who already contribute to our Thanksgiving Program are reminded to complete a brochure slip or pledge card at Mass as well as a Time and Talent sheet. Please read the attached newsletter for more information.
A dedicated group of parishioners will be visiting homes over this coming week to collect pledge slips and ‘Time & Talent’ sheets. Please keep these parishioners in your prayers and welcome them if they visit you and help us to keep our home visitation to a minimum by pledging today at Mass.
The Programme Director, Lorella Di Paolo will be available at all Masses this weekend should you need any further information.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROUS CONTRIBUTION. |
