World Youth Day Sponsors Requested. . .
As many of you know, we are taking a group of 14 teens on a pilgrimage in August, 2011. We will tour religious and cultural sites in Rome and Assisi before attending World Youth Day in Madrid, Spain with the Pope. This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will benefit not only these youth but the entire parish, for they are the future of the Church!

The teens have already been working hard at fundraisers, but we are also in need of donations. The cost for the 12-day trip is $3599 per person. We are hoping to pay half of each youths cost for the trip ($1800) with money raised through fundraisers and donations; they are responsible for the other half.

Wont you please prayerfully consider being a financial sponsor? Perhaps you could contribute at one of the levels listed below. If so, you may turn in the slip below with your donation and put it in the offertory or bring/mail it to the office. You may also contact Fr. Nnaso personally.

Note: If you are not able to contribute at one of the amounts below, the teens will also be selling $25 stocks soon and they will be holding various fundraisers.

Thank you in advance for your generosity!

Dear Fr. Nnaso,
I am enclosing the following donation in support of the youth of our parish who will be attending World Youth Day:
