Text Box: Text Box: August is the month when most Catholic Organizations begin to shake off the summer doldrums and to look forward to the increase in Fall Activity. That will be the subject of this message – a look ahead. August is the month that we begin to update our donor list to prepare for the October mailing of our Serra Appeal letter. Our list is constantly changing and requires personal outreach. This is time consuming but critical work. Our Appeal yields about $12,000.00 annually from your efforts. We would require $240,000.00 invested at 5% to generate this income. Help me once again update this important list. Look for people who love us. December 10, 2010, Dinner honoring Bishop is scheduled for 6:00 PM at Coronado Country Club. Tom and Lillian will make the arrangements. February 6, 2011, Appreciation Dinner for the Sisters and Brothers at Vist Hill Country Club. Planning is in Progress. April 11, 2011, Priest Luncheon will be held at St Charles Borromero Seminary at 12:30 PM. Liz Carl will make the arrangements.
