September 19 - 20, 2015

   

     On the cover of our weekly bulletin, we welcome new people to our Parish and invite them to register. I’m often asked: Why register? There are many reasons. For the Parish, it gives us a better picture of our Parish. We are required to report statistics to the diocese which are used to determine the size of our diocese. These numbers are sent to Rome each year to there can be an accurate count of the number of Catholics in the world. The information we obtain from registrations helps us plan programs and events that will meet the needs of our people. Simply knowing the age of our members can help us design programs of religious education for our young people, assess the need for communion ministers to the homebound, and make plans for our future. We can also keep accurate records regarding contributions to the parish. For registered members, there is a sense of belonging to a faith community, the ability to fully participate in the life of the parish, determining jurisdiction for the sacrament of matrimony, and having a say in what happens in our Parish.

     As we continue to see new people come to our parish, we invite them to register. For those who have been coming here for a long time, we invite you to make the commitment of joining our parish community. Know also that we do not share any of your personal information with any other organization, including the Diocese.

     Registration forms are conveniently located in the Book Room off the main entrance to the church, they can be picked up at the Rectory during business hours (Mon-Fri 10:00 am to 6:00 pm), or just give us a call, and we’ll be happy to mail one out.

     American Express used to advertise that “Membership has its privileges”. The same is true of St. Casimir Parish.
