A Letter From Fr. Paul & The Parish Finance Council


​My brothers and sisters,
​
We have had a tremendous season of giving at the Catholic Community of Pleasanton. I am  always very grateful for the broad involvement of so many – from the youngest to the oldest.  It is good and right to remember from what little I have been given or from how much I have, I am called to share deliberately and generously.  To the multitude, I thank you for sharing so authentically to so many people in need.
​
As we come to the end of this calendar year, we wanted to update you on the Parish’s finances compared to the operating budget that includes salaries, program operations and facilities to name a few.  Thank you to all who have responded to our information at the beginning of the year and to your stewardship – to share from your treasure as a result of prayer and a generous heart to give back to the House of God.  As you can see below, we are currently under budget for our collections through November. 
Picture

​​One of the challenges from a cash flow and budgeting perspective this year is the celebration of Christmas and New Years on Sundays. You may ask, why does this matter?  The concern stems from reduced Sunday collections by two weekends.  Believe it or not, your generous donations cover our tight operating budget.  It is the Sunday collection that allows us to operate day to day, week to week.

Therefore, we wanted to express our gratitude to everyone for your generous giving in response to people in need. They have had to face horrific circumstances due to disaster and we want to thank you for your overall generous spirit exhibited at all times.  We also want to bring to your awareness the unique situation for Sunday collections as well as where we are in relationship to budget. We ask that you pray on this and consider giving to both the Holy days and the Sunday plate through your generosity. Let us be good and responsible stewards.  Thank you for what you do to build up the Body of Christ at the Catholic Community of Pleasanton.

​Respectfully,
Fr. Paul and the members of the Catholic Community of Pleasanton Finance Council
