2023 -24 Annual Pledge Letter
-
Dear St. Austin Parishioner and Friends:
As we all look forward to celebrating the great Feast of Pentecost, and the outpouring of
the Holy Spirit on the Church, we are grateful for your commitment to, and participation
in, the life of our parish community. THANKS!
We are all getting excited about the approaching move into our new ministry and school
space. This has been a bold and rather remarkable project. We and the whole parish
staff are so proud of this parish/school community to accomplish such a great feat.
While building our new parish/school facilities, we must still attend to the day-to-day
expenses that are the mainstay of our mission. Salaries for our dedicated staff, utilities,
and upkeep of our church building continue. The ordinary and essential mission of our
parish continues.
With bountiful gratitude we ask for your continued generosity to our parish as we make
our plans for the new fiscal year that begins July 1. As we look forward hopefully to a
new era for our parish and school, we know that we can continue to count on both your
financial support and your prayers.
We will celebrate Stewardship Weekend at St Austin’s on May 21 and 22. We ask
that you pledge a return to the Lord for all the good the Lord has done for you,
especially for the gift of Faith. You will fulfill that pledge every time you make your
offertory contribution. We, for our part, are committed to be good stewards of the
financial contributions you make, as seen in our Annual Report. You can find that report
on our website, StAustin.org, and we invite you to check it out.
A Stewardship Pledge accompanies this letter. Please prayerfully consider your level
of support. We hope you will consider making your pledge commitment online as that is
the most efficient and economical method. Or you may complete and return the form on
Stewardship Weekend or by mail, using the enclosed envelope.
You are in our prayers as you decide on your pledge commitment. Please continue to
pray for our parish, and all the staff at St. Austin.
God bless!
