‘Rejoice in the Lord Always!’

Thursday, December 24th, 2009

At this most joyous time of year all of us on the Development Committee want to thank everyone who has contributed to the Campaign for St. John’s. Because of your generosity we have amassed 158 pledges totaling $475,237 of which we have already collected $135,437.71. In addition, we have received donations of $61,281.21. As a token of our appreciation, we have reserved a complimentary copy of Our Faith Filled Heritage, the bicentennial history of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, for each family that has donated to the campaign. You may pick up your book at the Parish Office between the hours of 9 a.m. and 4. p.m.

As you know, we have a long way to go to reach our goal of $1,200,000, but we are encouraged by your continuing support. Please have a warm, peace-filled Christmas and in the new year “Remember St. John’s”!

As a special “thank you,” we invite those who have contributed to the Campaign for St. John’s to pick up a complimentary copy of Our Faith Filled Heritage. This beautifully illustrated book tells the story of 150 years in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. Please pick up your book at the back of the church Dec. 5 or Dec. 6, or in the Parish Office during the week. It is not too late to make your contribution to the Campaign for St. John’s and receive your book! Our sincere thanks to all who have generously participated in the Campaign for St. John’s to date.
