In her address to all the leaders gathered at the annual National Prayer Breakfast in Washington DC in 1994, Mother Teresa asked this question: Do you give until it hurts? She said this 8 times throughout her speech. She was drawing on the fundamental law of Christian life. The law is that the only way to gain life is to give it away. Mother Teresa was an icon of this kind of giving, this kind of love, this kind of life.

The pandemic has been reshaping the way we do church. While it's been hard, there are also many blessings! Things we longed dreamed of doing have now taken priority. Technology is helping us redefine the way we worship, grow, serve, and engage our community.
Meeting these needs takes money. The pandemic has made it clear. The collection basket, our only source of revenue, no longer works. With revenues down over 30%, we have two paths before us - grow or die. As a member of our community, you have the final say.
Please give. The collection basket no longer works. Your offering to God and His Mission can be made online. Your one-time sign up by credit card or automatic bank withdraws is an easy, hassle-free way to give.
As our most committed community members, I know you love God and our community. I appeal to your generosity. Please give to your ability. Your monthly donations help us continue our mission of bringing God's love into the world through a life-changing friendship with Jesus.
I am grateful to all who have moved their offertory to monthly online donations. It gives our parish stable income on which to grow.
God bless you and keep you.
