E-giving Benefits
About 30 years ago, the vast majority of people re-
ceived a weekly paycheck and many of the other com-
mon financial responsibilities that a family had were
met weekly as well. Today however, pay cycles are
widely varied and nearly all other financial priorities
occur on a monthly cycle (mortgage, car payments,
utility bills, cell phone bills, etc.). Moving from a
weekly envelope to a program of E-Giving is an excel-
lent opportunity for families to consider giving as a
monthly, budgeted financial responsibility.

Message from TDF 5
Evangelization, Stewardship & Community Building
Alleluia! He Is Risen!
Happy Easter! I pray that the joy and peace of the Risen Lord be with you and your family.
It was a joy and an honor to celebrate with the parish communities of St. Joseph and St. Paul the liturgies of Holy Week and Easter. I am sincerely grateful to the parish staffs, musician, choirs, servers, readers, decorators, sacristans and all the other ministers who do so much to make these celebrations so beautiful.
A sincere welcome and congratulations to those who enter the Church at the Easter Vigil: Lafe Huckstead, Karen Sutton, Shawn Richardson, and Thomas and Brenda Crackel. I am very appreciative of the work of Jo Mayer, Deacon Ken Hilliard and the whole RCIA team in their ministry of sharing the Catholic faith with our neophytes.
