End-of-Year and US!
Join us as we work to end this year debt free and on strong financial footing as a parish! It really is a ‘us’ project…here is why!
Why end of year giving is important?
Because it reduces your tax burden and allows Saint Miriam to pay off all vendor debt and move into 2018 with a clean slate.
Why is this important, too?
Many parties become overwhelmed by vendor debt and obligations and it causes them to close their doors. That is why since our founding some almost 10 years ago, Monsignor Jim does not allow us to move into a new year with existing obligations.
What Happens to Our End of Year Gifts?
We actually pay off vendors and move into a new year with only our mortgage and long term debt service! It has kept us healthy and growing every year! And, if you need proof it works…just look around you!
How does it help Us?
Your gift saves you tax obligations, AND helps us to meet our end of year financial goals. Your gift also reduces our need for a heavy stewardship appeal in the spring!
So, please give generously today by using this link or sending back your gift in the self address and stamped envelope that went out to your homes this week!
What better gift can you give to your parish than to help with an end-of-year gift!?

Honoring Our Dead…
This week we honor All Saints and All Souls.
We began this week with the “Lighting of the Luminaries” on Wednesday, November 1st at 6:30pm to teach the world that we care for the dead and love them still.
Now, we celebrate the life of all the saints – living and dead – on Sunday, November 5th – as we honor All Saints and All Souls Day. Your gifts of light will cover a cemetery and light the windows of our parish this year, as they honor and remember all saints, all souls!
The Solemnity of All Souls and Saints, is a celebration of what we truly believe!
Join us.
