FINANCIAL PROBLEMS - We have the following bills which must be paid on a monthly basis and have been falling short on our weekly contributions which have been forced the carryover of many of the bills from month to month. Payroll $50,000 Diocesan Assessments 6,000 Parish portion on Health Ins 11,215 Property Insurance 2,500 Employer Social Security 3,700 Utilities 6,000 Employee Retirement (403B) 1,400 Monthly General Bills 4,000. We ran short by $21,000+ from last year which we have had to make up in addition to our present budget. Most of the income is from the weekly collections. We sincerely asked our parishioners to dig a little deeper to help us out with our cash flow problems. We also have a large percentage of our parishioners who contributed nothing toward our parish income. There is no better time to begin contributing than during this Lenten season.  We would like to thank everyone for
all of your thoughts, prayers, cards, phone calls, food and kindness during
Fayes recent illness, surgery and stay in the hospital. Your thoughts of
kindness will not be forgotten. DeWayne & Faye (Engelbrecht) DoerhoffDear Family and Friends, My family
and I would like to thank everyone for the thoughts and prayers during my
hospitalization. The support weve received over the past weeks has been
amazing. My recovery has been going well. We were told by staff at Rusk that
the amount of returns received in a very short amount of time post-injury
must have been attributable to the prayers being received on behalf of our
family. Special thank you to Father Dave for being there with my family
during the wait of my surgery. Brian Forck (and family)St. Martins Knights of Columbus, Ladies Auxiliary Fundraising Breakfast, March 9.
