Summertime can be rather challenging in our office because cashflow can be tough to deal with because many people are away on any given weekend. Please don't forget your parish when you are away. Please send in your contribution early or make it up when you get home.
"Give God your first-fruits, not your leftovers."
Thank you,
Fr. Tim
