Thanks to everyone who is making this challenge possible and successful.  We have lots of high-end expensive repairs to make this spring.  The rectory roof needs replaced and the porch is pulling away from the house; the furnace at St. Hedwig is in need of repair and the CCD parking lot needs paved and gated.  May we continue to participate in this challenge for the secure, fiscal future of our parish.
