GAC
This year’s Grand Annual Collection was taken during one
of the most disastrous weekends weather-wise. Because of
this, our income has been the lowest for this same period in
the last ten years. Meanwhile, the utility bills and heating
expenses for the rectory and the two churches have skyrocketed. You can use any envelope marked Grand Annual
Collection and deposit it in any collection basket or even send
your donation through the mail. We thank you for your
participation.
