Parish Grand Annual Collection 2024
Grand Annual Letters have been mailed to all Registered Parishioners. The Parish depends on your generous economic support to maintain our Parish and keep our ministries moving in a positive direction. The offertory collection supports our regular operating budget but is insufficient for our fiscal budget. We depend on the Grand Annual to help us with essential maintenance for the church building, rectory, campus, and activities to keep our parish active in its mission. We hope with your support, we can reach our goal of $150,000. Your gift will make a difference not only in our lives but in the lives of others. Thank you for your generosity.
Dear Parishioners of Saint Peter Parish.
I am blessed to be the new pastor of this excellent Parish. This is a Parish where all are welcomed because everyone is invited to have a new life in Christ. In these first months I have been here, I have seen how welcoming, faithful, and generous you have all been. We are a community on board, continuing the Kingdom of God on earth, serving others through our ministries at the Parish, such as the Scripture Studies, Harvard Square Churches Meals Program, Men’s Group, Ukraine Welcome Circle, Saint Vincent de Paul, and other groups. Additionally, we are blessed to have an excellent Parish School “Saint Peter” for our children where they can be educated to be good citizens and good Christians. Also, we have a good parish staff, who can serve you when needed and we are blessed to have volunteers for the celebration of Mass as Lectors, Eucharistic Ministers, Altar Servers, Ushers, and much more. We have many of you serving God and His Church; this is excellent news. Along with this news, we depend on your generous economic support to our Parish to keep our Church moving forward. In order to maintain our Parish and keep our ministries moving in a positive direction, we need your generous support. This year, we will hold our Grand Annual in October to support our Parish financially. Unlike the Catholic Appeal this campaign is about helping our local Saint Peter Parish and its needs.

We hope that with your support, we can reach our goal of $150,000. I kindly ask you to pray and encourage you to help us as generously as you can with your gift towards our Grand Annual. Your gift will make a difference not only in our lives but in the lives of others.
I truly appreciate your prayers and contributions in helping us reach the Grand Annual goal. May Saint Peter intercede for you and your family and May God bless you now and forever.
Peace be with you,
