November 15, 2011 Dear Parishioners: I am happy to enclose our Annual Report
for the Fiscal Year 2011. This report shows St. Francis de Sales Parish income and expenses from July 2010 to July 2011. Through
your generosity and support, we have accomplished much at St. Francis de Sales. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for
all that you do for our parish financially, as well as in volunteer service. We are a blessed community of faith! Your regular contributions through the Sunday collections, the
use of parish envelopes and Electronic Fund Transfers allow us to pay our bills week after week. Your response to my call
for help to replace the boilers in the Worship Center was overwhelming. We were able to pay for the new boiler, new control
system and begin to put some money away toward replacing the air conditioner in the near future. Again I thank you. As you know we are now involved in a capital campaign called Embracing
Our Mission—Shaping Our Future. This is a combined effort with the Archdiocese of Baltimore
to raise capital funds for need across the Archdiocese as well as for our own future growth. We are striving to raise $1,600,000
over the next five years. Your pledges, prayers and support are greatly appreciated. Of course, even in the midst of a capital campaign we still have to pay our regular bills. Your continued
support is essential. As you know the cost of everything from electricity to the bread and wine we use at Mass continues to
rise. If you are able to increase your weekly giving even a dollar or two, it would be a great help. Whatever you are able
to give, however, if it comes from a grateful heart, will be met with equal gratitude from me, and great blessing from our
generous God who gave his only Son to be our Savior.
With prayers for
your intentions and gratitude for all that you do for St. Francis de Sales, I am In Christ,
Rev. Charles M.
Wible Pastor
