Men lose all the material things they leave behind them in this world, but they carry with them the reward of

their charity and the alms they give. For these they will receive from the Lord the reward and recompense they

deserve. - St. Francis of Assisi

God has blessed each of us with so many gifts-our families, friends, talents, abilities, in fact our very lives are gifts

from God. As good stewards we recognize that all blessings come from the Lord and that these blessings are to

be used to serve all God’s children.

Thanks to your generosity, we received $52,400 in pledges to the 2019 Catholic Ministries Appeal from 256 parish

families. Your donations help meet the needs of people in the Diocese of Rockville Centre and in our own parish.

This money helps the poor and the elderly, supports health services, education and counseling programs for

people of all ages. It provides for religious education for priests and seminarians, for meals-on-wheels, for

chaplain services in hospitals, college campuses and county jails, along with many more ministries intended to

help those less fortunate on Long Island. Finally our parish receives a cash rebate which last year amounted to

more than $10,000. This money helps offset expenses needed to run our parish and the many programs we

offer. We have over 2,700 families in our parish and hopefully many more families will be able to make a

pledge to this years Catholic Ministries Appeal.

In a world of so many troubles, it’s easy to feel like there is nothing we can do to make a difference. But we can

help feed the hungry. We can see that our seniors are provided with services and shelter. We can provide guid-

ance through troubled times. We can make sure that no one feels alone.

If you have not already made a donation to this year’s appeal you can make a difference. Please support the

ministries of our diocese & parish by making a pledge to the Catholic Ministries Appeal.

You have until January 31st, 2021 to pay off your pledge. No down payment is necessary. The Diocese will send

monthly reminders. Keep in mind this is not a legal document. If you feel you cannot keep up your payments,

simply discontinue them. Whatever you are able to give, large or small, will be accepted gratefully. To help

you decide here are some suggested gift plans:

**$500 pledge—$50 per month **$100 pledge—$10 per month

**$250 pledge—$25 per month **$50 pledge—$5 per month

To make a pledge, simply fill out the form below and place it in the collection basket in the coming weeks or

mail it back to the parish office. Thank you for your support and continued generosity.

John Romaine, Catholic Ministries Appeal Chairman
