GRAND ANNUAL COLLECTION
As you may know, this is the me of the year that parishes ini ate their Grand An-nual Drive. Many of you have already received your Grand Annual envelope in your September/October envelope pack-
et. During the months of October-January, we ask for your -nancial support of St. Mary of the Sacred Heart Parish through your generous par cipa on in our Grand Annual Collec on. If you are not on our envelope system, or give online through WeShare or GiveBu er, we ask that you mail your dona on directly to the parish. The Grand Annual, in years past, was o en saved to create a “rainy day fund” for our parishes. Un-fortunately, now it is needed to help support our opera ng budget. Parishioners are asked to carefully consider an amount that circumstances will allow them to o er each year. All gi s are greatly appreciated.

Our priests are often at the center of efforts that build
strong support systems for all of us. In addition to
their daily pastoral responsibilities, they help establish
social service organizations, offer spiritual support for first
responders, operate parish food pantries, and recently, in
response to the pandemic, put their lives at risk to provide
comfort and peace to those suffering with COVID-19.
Healthier priests build stronger communities. And the
Clergy Health and Retirement Trust (CHRT) is dedicated to
keeping our priests healthy.
This September, you can support the CHRT’s mission
by giving to the special collection at Masses on
September 19/20. Every gift makes a difference and is
a symbol of gratitude for all our priests who don’t just
observe need in our communities; they seek it out so
they can respond.
Donate now online at clergytrust.org or scan the QR code to give with Venmo, Apple/Google Pay, and PayPal via Givebutter.
