February marks the 8th month of the fiscal year. Thank you for your continued support of the mission and ministries of our parish. During the month of February, our average weekly collection was $20,531 (4% increase vs. Jan 23). You also generously donated to various important causes in our February second collections at $16,297 ($4,074 a week.) This brings our February weekly average to $24,605. We budgeted our Sunday Offertory income for the current fiscal year (34 weeks x $16,000) at $544,000 and received $666,808 (+$122,808).We have budgeted the extra income for the continuing maintenance and improvements to our parish campus buildings and grounds. As you know, we are dependent upon your practice of good stewardship to fulfill our parish mission. The love that these gifts represent will enable us to continue the work that we must undertake here at St. Francis of Assisi Parish.
