My Dear Friends,<br />
THE HE PASTOR ASTOR ASTOR’S ASTOR PARAGRAPH<br />
ARAGRAPH<br />
Today is a 2nd collection for our church’s Campaign for Human Development. This<br />
is an annual collection designed to promote programs which create opportunities for<br />
people who are in need to help themselves. I have put some words of the US Bishop<br />
who coordinates this effort in the ‘<strong>Reflection</strong>’ on the front page of this week’s bulletin.<br />
The 2nd collection last week for the victims of Hurricane Sandy came to $3,902. Thank you for this generosity and<br />
we will send the funds to be distributed through <strong>Catholic</strong> Charities. If you wish to contribute, just mark your gift<br />
and place it in any of the collections today.<br />
On the back page of the bulletin is a letter from Bishop Burbidge expressing thanks for our contribution to the Diocesan<br />
Cathedral Campaign. We have now reached the goal for the Cathedral and the 2012 Bishop’s Annual Appeal.<br />
All the funds we receive from here on go to our own new church fund—Our Church~Our Time Campaign. You can<br />
see the latest updates in another part of the bulletin. For those who were not here last week—we will distribute<br />
pledge forms again today. We still have one important goal to reach—100% parish family participation.<br />
