William Hubbard OUR LADY OF FATIMA PARTICIPATION IN THE FOR CHRIST FOREVER CAMPAIGN: Campaign Goal $1,077,050 2014 PSA Goal $101,000 Total Goal $1,178,050 Dear Parishioners and Friends of Our Lady of Fatima,/Queridos parroquianos y amigos de Nuestra Señora de Fátima, One of the major case elements of our For Christ Forever campaign is the support of local parish projects. After we meet our PSA goal, Our Lady of Fatima will receive 25% of the funds raised toward our campaign goal. In addition, we will receive 50% of any funds raised above our campaign goal for our own parish needs. That means we have the potential to receive $269,263 when we hit our goal and even more if we surpass it! After consultation with our staff, Parish Pastoral Council and Finance Council, I have decided that the money we will receive will be best used in a variety of areas. I will designate 50% toward our outstanding liabilities, 25% toward capital improvements in our church building, 20% toward faith formation and evangelization, and 5% to bolster our parish reserves. It is exciting to think how these funds will help us grow and bring others to Christ. As more information comes in the following weeks, please start praying about your participation in our diocesan wide For Christ Forever campaign. Uno de los elementos principales de nuestra campaña Para Cristo Siempre es a través del apoyo de proyectos hacia las parroquias individualmente. Después de llegar a nuestro objetivo de PSA, la parroquia de Nuestra Señora de Fátima recibirá el 25% de los fondos recaudados hacia nuestra meta de la campaña (Campaign Goal). Además, podremos recibir el 50% de los fondos recaudados si pasamos la meta de nuestro objetivo de la campaña, lo cual será para nuestras propias necesidades. Eso significa que podemos recibir hasta $269,263 al llegar a nuestra meta e incluso más si lo superamos. Después de consultar con nuestro personal, Consejo Pastoral y el comité financiero, he decidido que el dinero que recibamos será utilizado en algunas áreas que considero importantes. Voy a designar 50% para pagar nuestras obligaciones pendientes, 25% para mejorar el templo, 20% a la formación de la fe y de la evangelización y 5% para reforzar nuestras reservas. Es emocionante pensar cómo estos fondos nos ayudarán a crecer y a traer a otros a Cristo. Se les hará llegar más información a medida que se presente en las siguientes semanas. Por favor, empiecen a orar sobre su participación en nuestra campaña diocesana Cristo Para Siempre. sixth sunday of ordinary time / 6° Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 3 parish news, events, and opportunities Collection for the Church in Latin America/Eastern Europe Share your Faith Next week, we will take up the Collection for the Church in Latin America. Catholics in Latin America and the Caribbean face many challenges, including violence and a lack of both clergy and lay leadership to witness to the gospel message. Your support shares the faith with those in need, including the youth of Holy Family Parish in San Miguel, El Salvador. These young people, at high risk for violence, often lack an education in values and critical-thinking skills. To address this need, the parish designed a youth enrichment program. Funded by the Collection, this program gives the youth an opportunity to share their faith and break the cycle of violence in their neighborhoods. Please give generously to next week’s Collection. La próxima semana realizaremos la Colecta para la Iglesia en América Latina. Los católicos en América Latina y el Caribe enfrentan muchos desafíos, incluyendo la violencia y la falta de clero y liderazgo laical para dar testimonio del mensaje del evangelio. Su apoyo comparte la fe con los necesitados, incluyendo los jóvenes de la Parroquia de la Sagrada Familia en San Miguel, El Salvador. Estos jóvenes, que afrontan riesgos por la violencia, carecen de una educación en valores y en los talentos de análisis crítico. Para responder a esta necesidad, la parroquia creó un programa de enriquecimiento y liderazgo para la juventud. El programa, financiado por la Colecta, les brinda a los jóvenes la oportunidad de compartir su fe y poner fin al ciclo de violencia en sus vecindarios. Por favor, contribuya generosamente en la Colecta de la próxima semana. Lenten Fish Dinner Volunteers Needed.
