2 MUCH FOR WHICH TO BE THANKFUL A Letter from Rev. Francis Keferl, Pastor Emeritus As you peruse the Stewardship Report for fiscal year , I hope you will find there is much for which to be grateful. Once again God has blessed our efforts to be a community that gives witness to his love. We have welcomed new members, come to the aid of strangers, watched our children grow in discipleship, hopefully, advanced in our own relationship with the Lord, and helped loved ones make the transition to a greater share in eternal life. To quote St. Paul, I[we] can do all things through Christ who strengthens me [us]. (Philippians 4:13) You will see in this report that much has been done to maintain the physical well-being of our facilities, thanks to parishioner support, our Facilities Commission and an astute Business Manager. Working together, with God s help, we can do great things! With a new fiscal year, there are changes in leadership. Fr. Tonkin is ready, willing and able to lead our parish family. But he surely will depend upon the support of the whole parish. St. Christopher Parish has a good reputation in the local Catholic community. But like most other parishes, we struggle with total or even majority support from members. Across this nation, Catholic parishes find that the wonderful things accomplished are done so with financial support from relatively few. It is my hope that St. Christopher Parish becomes a leader among parishes in terms of stewardship. If everyone made a sacrificial gift, we could do far greater things than we now accomplish. The Bible recommends tithing (10% of one s income given back to God). This means off the top, not from what s left over. I can personally testify that tithing works. And one of the richest blessings of tithing is that it helps one avoid materialism and the rampant consumerism of the culture in which we live. It makes me question what are real necessities as opposed to the indulgences we can so easily convince ourselves are necessary. I pray that every parish member will commit to supporting the parish in time, talent and treasure, and consider annually whether the support needs to be adjusted up or down, dependent on one s own circumstances. As this is my last opportunity to address the whole parish, I want to thank everyone for the privilege of sharing your life s journey with its joys and sorrows. Thank you for being patient with my limited abilities and forgiving of my human sinfulness. And be assured that I hold no ill will toward anyone with whom I encountered conflict. May Peace reign in our hearts! St. Christopher Parish made great strides this past year in a renewed online presence for outreach and communication. Among these strides: WEBSITE AND MEDIA HIGHLIGHTS The Parish Website received an update during the latter half of the fiscal year. The new site maintains functionality with a focus on current information, user-friendliness and a mobile design for smartphone browsers. Through MyParish App, there is now an additional way for parishioners to interface with the parish at large. Daily Mass readings, national Catholic news, and even online prayer requests are now possible via the app. St. Christopher has taken steps toward greater interfacing between social media platforms (including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Sound Cloud) in an effort to create a complete outreach experience. Beginning with Fr. John Tonkin s inaugural weekend, audio homilies are now available every week via the website and app.
