RECLAIMING CHRIST’S MISSION TOGETHER Thank you for allowing us to proclaim and share with you last week our second Commitment Weekend for our Reclaiming Christ’s Mission Together. We have grown to 53 pledges and outright donations from our parishioners. As of October 31, 2014, in just over a month, we have received $180,235.00 in 4-year pledges or outright donation. We have slightly increased that to about 24% of our target goal but still only 1% of our total parishioners. We are inching along and we are confident that everyone will step up to be stewards to build our Church together. If you have not completed your pledge card yet, please continue to prayerfully reflect on how to participate in this sacrificial giving for our Diocese and parish. Please remember to write St. Anne, Union City on your pledge cards so that our parish can be appropriately credited for your pledge. You don’t have to enclose a down payment, if you can’t. Please drop off your completed pledge cards in the offertory basket at any Mass next week or the following week, drop it off in the church office, or use the envelope and mail it directly to the Diocese. Please remember that it takes about a week or two before your pledge/donation gets recorded and reported to us to show in this Capital Campaign Goal Update. If you have any questions, please call the church office or see any of the RECOMMIT* leaders.
