We have sent out the annual financial report from the parish. If you do not have it yet, you should in a few days. It tells you where we used your money last year and how we ministered to people who came seeking to be a part of this parish. I encourage you to look over the report. I also encourage you to listen carefully to the people who will be speaking to us as a parish in the coming weeks about how we can all support our ministries and how we can give financially to make the ministries more enriching. Reflect upon your giving to the parish in terms of work, service, and sacrifice. Many hands giving reaps a huge reward. Will you help make the rewards of being a parishioner at St. Joseph the Worker greater by giving a bit more of yourself? Thank you for already making this parish the community of desire for so many in the Twin Cities area. We are a parish of choice. Will you work to make it an even greater experience? Fr. Mike
