2018 CATHOLIC APPEAL
Thank you to all who have already pledged their support. St. Bridget Parish has raised $25,077 toward our 2018 Catholic Appeal goal of $29,985. We are at 84% of our
goal. We have $4908 left to go. If you have not given yet and would like to, pledge forms are available in the back
of the church. Please take one home and put it in the collection basket at Mass.
Sixth Sunday of Easter Today’s Scriptures give us a message that is loud and clear: “Let us love one another. . .” and “This is my commandment, love one
another.” The love that we share is not our own, but rather it is the love God has for us. Love is a powerful means
of evangelization. The love of a faithful disciple draws people to Jesus Christ. So, let’s take the scripture to heart this week and
extend the love of God to others.
