FUND DRIVE FOR AIRCONDITIONING & PARKING LOT - At our parish annual meeting, we decided to allocate the necessary funds to complete the Church Parking Lot and install central airconditioning in the Church. While there is sufficient funds in the Church Treasury to cover the costs, we have decide to have a special fund drive to defray the cost of these projects to allow a bigger cash reserve in case of unforseen expenses or shortfalls in the parish budget. To date, $2985.00 has been already raised for the airconditioning and $11,500 for the Onofrey Parking Lot. If you would like to make a donation please see Fr. Peter or any parish council officer. Thank you for your consideration of this request.
