Dear Parishioners,
This week is the Pledge Sunday for the 2020 Annual Catholic Appeal throughout the Diocese of Trenton. Each year the Bishop seeks the support of all the members of the diocese to further the work of our ministries. Each of us has a vital part in all we do in Christ’s name, and each of us can share in all we do with a gift to the Annual Catholic Appeal. Our single Act of Faith propels the works of love that build up our Church. You make that happen with a generous gift to the ACA.
This year Holy Innocents Church’s share of the goal is $57,000.
As the people of the Diocese of Trenton, you have an opportunity to help others see Christ working in our midst. I ask you to take a moment and truly reflect on any help you can give. We truly need everyone to participate. This year the diocese is again striving to reach a goal of $7 million.
I am always grateful and moved by the level of support you give to our parish. I thank you for this support, and may God continue to bless you and your family. We could not have a Church without your help.
May the peace of God be with you.
God bless!
Father Carter
P.S. On a completely different note, I am going to move the Stations of the Cross during Lent from 7 pm to 6 pm because I notice that more people come out to events when we have them earlier. If you are against this change, think that would be an inconvenient time for people, or especially if changing that time prevents you from going to stations, feel free to let me know at toddcarterpriest@gmail.com or call the office. If it does not work out, we can change the time back for next year.
