Support your Parish during COVID-19
During this time that Sunday Masses are suspended, our normal means of receiving Sunday Mass collections is not possible. But the expenses for the Parish continue and the friars are continuing their ministry in the parish. If you are in a position to continue your weekly support by contributing to both the 1st and 2nd Collections, it would be greatly appreciated.
The First Collection supports the Franciscan Friars who minister in the parish (and partly the Clergy Sustenation Fund of the Archdiocese). The Second Collection meets parish expenses.
You can also contribute by bringing or sending your offering to the Parish Office in person or by using Direct Deposit.
Thank you very much for your ongoing support.
