Fri 9am-12pmTO THE FAITHFUL OF OUR PASTORATE,Every year, the Endowment Fund Board convenes to approve grants supporting
religious education. I extend my appreciation to the board members for their commitment and effort in overseeing the grant approval process. And sincere thanks to the donors whose contributions helped fund important evangelization efforts.
At the April meeting, approved grants totaled over $54,000! This funding is vital for running our school and faith formation programs, enabling us to carry out our mission to “Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations.”
The Endowment Fund is intended to last indefinitely. Gifts to the fund are invested and never spent. As the market grows over time, gifts to the fund grow and provide earnings that can be used for current needs and ongoing initiatives.You can find endowment details at pastorate26.com/endowment along with a link for online gift giving. Please consider supporting our endowment fund in your bequests, memorials, and celebrations.
Blessings this Mother’s Day weekend,Fr. Chad M. Droessler
