SAINT RAPHAEL PARI SH, WEST MEDFORD

Reflection:

The initial response of the Catholic Appeal

has been encouraging—thank you. To date,

we have raised $32,700.00, or 68% of our

goal amount of $47,800.00. The Catholic

Appeal helps to advance the work of the

Church through the pastoral, charitable and

educational ministries serving as the foun-

dation for transmitting the faith across

generations. Through a shared commitment

to the Catholic Appeal, we unite our hearts

and hands with one another as we live our

faith together as one body in Christ. The

Appeal is funded through the generosity and

commitment of those who believe in these

ministries and want to ensure they remain

strong.

If you have yet to respond, please

make a pledge today and help us reach our

goal by June 30th. Your pledge can be paid

in monthly installment through January 31,

2019. Pledge cards are available in the

pews. Let us also rejoice in God’s love for us,

and in the grace of sharing that love with

others, especially those in need. Thank you.

The Journey continues ….

Beginning early June, Rev. Robert Cullen will

embrace another chapter

of his ministry assigned as Administrator: Saint

Margaret Mary Parish,

845 High Street, Westwood, MA 02090-0386

Please join in prayerful support of this amazing

man and wonderful

priest who blessed our Parish for so many

years!!
