2024-2025 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS AND MAJOR EXPENSES

     On behalf of the Finance Committee and Parish Council, I am asking for your help in paying for these necessary non-budgeted Capital Improvements and Major Expenses. You will be receiving a letter in the mail with the details of the expenses along with the funds and donations we have available.
     The mailing has a corrected copy different from last week’s bulletin. In the insert I inverted the funds raised and funds needed and since then we have updated bills. You may use the envelope in the letter, your “CAPITAL IMPOVEMENTS” in your envelopes packet, electronic giving or other means that are available.
     
As always, our parish thrives because of the generosity and sacrifice of our parishioners. I trust we all are willing to give of our time, talent and treasure as an expression of how deeply we care for our parish. Giving feels good when we use our resources to express our values. I invite you to do your part in keeping our building and grounds operational and updated!

Thank you in advance for your support!

Fr. Joe Hannappel

**** THE SACRED PASCHAL TRIDUUM ****

The other side of the mailing has the schedule for Holy Thursday - April 17, Good Friday - April 18, Holy Saturday – April 18, and Easter Sunday – April 19. I hope everyone who is able will participate in these most sacred days of our liturgical life together. You will also find times for our Catholic Community of Kearney Reconciliation Service – April 13 and for individual confessions.
 

 


MEJORAS CAPITALES Y GASTOS IMPORTANTES DEL 2024-2025

     En nombre del Comité de Finanzas y del Consejo Parroquial, solicito su ayuda para cubrir estas mejoras capitales y gastos importantes que no fueron presupuestados. Recibirán una carta por correo con los detalles de los gastos, junto con los fondos y donaciones disponibles.
    El envío incluye una copia corregida, diferente a la del boletín de la semana pasada. En el inserto, incluí los fondos recaudados y los fondos necesarios, y desde entonces hemos actualizado las facturas. Pueden usar el sobre de la carta, su paquete de "MEJORAS CAPITAL" en los sobres, donaciones electrónicas u otros medios disponibles.
     Como siempre, nuestra parroquia prospera gracias a la generosidad y el sacrificio de nuestros feligreses. Confío en que todos estemos dispuestos a donar nuestro tiempo, talento y recursos como expresión de nuestro profundo cariño por nuestra parroquia. Dar nos hace sentir bien cuando usamos nuestros recursos para expresar nuestros valores. ¡Los invito a contribuir a mantener nuestro edificio y terrenos operativos y actualizados!

¡Gracias de antemano por su apoyo!

Pd. José Hannappel
