WE VE BEEN CHALLENGED!! Catholic Extension, founded in 1905, raises money to build churches and the Church in America s poorest places. This year Holy Family applied for and received a $50,000 Challenge Grant for our new Church. Only one in five applications received funding. To qualify we need to raise $150,000 in new cash gifts before December 31, 2017. If you have already given, would you consider another donation to help us meet this challenge? If you have not contributed yet, this is the time to make your dollar donation really count. Pledge cards are available on the table by the Holy Water Font at the Church entrance.

Donations can be put in the collection or mailed to Holy Family Building Fund P.O.
