Dear Friends,
I wanted to thank you for your support to Holy Family Parish, our parish, in the last year. This past year has been one where we have had a lot of extraordinary experiences, with the Covid-19 pandemic, then the quarantine, and our life in the midst of the pandemic ever since.
Despite all of this, I am very proud of our parish and thankful that our parishioners stepped up to support our continuing work in the parish in-person and also virtually.
We did end up last fiscal year, however, (July 1, 2019-June 30, 2020) a little behind where we want to be, and are a little off where we want to be in the current fiscal year.
Because of that we are asking you to consider two things: First, to sign up for our electronic giving. You can sign up by clicking here https://membership.faithdirect.net/MD61.
If you don’t use a computer, please call Donna at the parish office at 301-261-7399 extension 35 to get help to do this change. You can end or change your faith direct giving at any time without any delays or waiting.
Second of all, we know that many people have been affected economically by Covid-19 and the quarantine, etc. And if you are one of those people we don’t want to worry you with any request for funds at this time.
But if you are able to marginally increase your giving – maybe consider doing so at this time. For while we try to be as frugal as possible here at the parish, costs do continue to rise each year for us in running the parish.
In the end, I do believe in the important work of a local parish. And I do believe that what we do here at Holy Family has an impact on many people, so I ask you all of this sincerely and simply as a brother in Christ who is trying to move our parish forward to continue to do the work that has been given us to do.
Please also consider filling out and returning the enclosed flyer with ways you are inspired by our parish and why you choose to participate or visit www.opfaob.com/ to share your comments online.
God bless you and Peace!!
Fr. Andy Aaron
