Thank You
Dear Fr. Ken, We wish to gratefully acknowledge your generosity and that of the good people of St. Clare Parish. Your offering of $6,889 represents your heartwarming response to the mission appeal that our missionary preached for the benefit of the Society of the Comboni Missionaries. May our Lord bless and reward you for the interest and concern you have shown for our missionaries and may we continue to work together in our common goal of spreading the word of Jesus. Best wishes to you and your parishioners.
Sincerely, Fr. Brian Quigley, MCCJ Mission Director
