Saint
Casimir Parish
September 26 - 27, 2015
|
During the first two weeks
of October, every parish in
our diocese conducts the
annual “October Count”,
where we count the number of
people who come to each
Mass. This information is
sent to the diocese and is
used along with the numbers
on our parish register to
determine how well we as
Church are practicing our
faith. The results of these
statistics is also used to
help determine where we need
to improve our practices,
how our priests and deacons
are distributed, helps us
set priorities for programs,
and helps determine the
future of our individual
parishes.
We urge everyone in
the parish to put in an
extra effort over the next
two weekends to participate
at Mass here at St. Casimir.
God Bless! Fr. Joe Bacevice
CATHOLIC COMMUNICATIONS CAMPAIGN
Next week, our parish will accept donations for the Catholic
Communications Campaign. These offerings help communicate
the Gospel through Catholic social media activities and
enriches our faith through podcasts, television, radio and
print media. Half of all proceeds remain in our diocese and
support local needs. Please be generous.
