Parish Life Reports
-- See how donations are spent to support the many activities of parish life.
Our Fiscal Years begin July 1.
We publish our Annual Parish Life Report, normally in the fall when our parish population is at its peak. We distribute in in church and keep it online so that you can refer to it.
The Annual Parish Life Reports gives a view of how our finances relate to parish activites, people and ministries. We cannot do the many things we do without our wonderful generous donors. So much of what we do is not calculated in terms of money, because our people are great volunteers who give countless hours to serve the parish and our people as well as people around the area.
There is no such thing as a free lunch. Utility companies must be paid. Our clergy and staff have to put food on the table. Insurance costs continue to increase. Parish property must be maintained and repaired. In addition, our parish is part of the Catholic Church and we support the practice of our faith both inside the parish and outside of it. We have a duty to support services and ministries in the Diocese of Phoenix, the national Catholic collections, global Catholic efforts and the ministries of The Holy See (Vatican City).
Sacred Scripture makes it clear that it is proper to give back to the Lord for what he has given to us. The Bible says to tithe (10%) from the top of our income. We place our trust in God's Providence to provide for our needs. The Precepts of the Catholic Church also instruct the faithful to support the work of the Church.
The following reports will give you a broad view of the people our parish has served and how we have served them with the resources that Our Lord has provided through the generous hearts of his people.
