MESSAGE FROM RICK KLARMANN, LAY DIRECTOR

Dear Brothers & Sisters in Christ,

When we (Secretariat) reached out to you trying to raise money to defray the costs of the upcoming weekends, I should have explained why we asked for money last year and are asking again this year.  The short answer is we receive less money than we pay out.  Secretariat strives to use your gifts to the best of our ability; here are a few examples of what your donations were used for:

• Defraying the cost of the Weekend
• Weekend supplies, books, Bibles, pens, pencils, etc.
• Annual dues to National Cursillo and Region 2
• Annual donation to Epiphany
• Coffee, tea, and rolls at School of Leaders
• Other charitable giving

We still have some funds available but we are a long way from reaching our goal of $4000 in order to defray the cost of the weekend.  I believe we will reach our goal with your help.  Please pray about it and give what you can, when you can.  You can give your gift at the upcoming School of Leaders, the Diocesan Mass (September 8^th) or via mail to:

Mary Weis
20 Silver Maple Lane
Howell, NJ 07731

Thank you all for your continued prayer and support for our movement. God will take everything you give--your time, your talent, and your prayer--and multiply it.  God bless.

Rick
