CATHOLIC CHARITIES APPEAL - We are in the midst of the annual Archdiocesan Catholic Charities Appeal. More than usual, this year is a good time to let the Light who is Christ shine forth through our communal efforts on behalf of our neighbors in need so that people may see goodness in our acts and give praise to our heavenly Father (Matthew 5:16), and for this reason I have decided to increase my own donation to this years Appeal. I urge you to consider participating and please know that whatever you can give is both needed and appreciated. PRAY, FAST, CONNECT, HELP - This week Operation Rice Bowl invites us to come to know Maria Idalia Serrano from El Salvador. We encourage our members to practice ORB and to make use of the materials available in Chapel & Church and/or through www.catholicrelief.org. At the end of Lent, we ask you to convert your Rice Bowl donations into one check and place that check into the collection basket on Holy Thursday or on Easter Sunday. POOR BOXES - All funds received in our Parish Poor Boxes this Lent will be sent to The Clinic right here in Phoenixville.

TANGIBLES REFLECTION We encourage you to prayerfully reflect on whether the stewardship of your material goods increases your attachment to God or interferes with your relationship with Him. Where the Holy Spirit leads you in that reflection is a matter between you and God. The Tangibles portion of the Commitment Form indicates only that you have reflected on this issue and that you agree to help support our parish as you are able. The following table can help you examine your current percentage of giving and decide whether it is right for you or whether a change is suitable. The highlighted column lists income amounts both by week and year. The right section shows various percentages of that income by week and year.
Weekly Income $100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1,000 1,200 1,400 1,600 1,800 Annual Income 5,200 10,400 15,600 20,800 26,000 31,200 36,400 41,600 46,800 52,000 62,400 72,800 83,200 93,600 Weekly 2% $2 $4 $6 $8 $10 $12 $14 $16 $18 $20 $24 $28 $32 $36 Annual Weekly Annual Weekly Annual Weekly Annual Weekly Annual 2% 4% 4% 6% 6% 8% 8% 10% 10% $104 $4 $208 $6 $312 $8 $416 $10 $520 $208 $8 $416 $12 $624 $16 $832 $20 $1,040 $312 $12 $624 $18 $936 $24 $1,248 $30 $1,560 $416 $16 $832 $24 $1,248 $32 $1,664 $40 $2,080 $520 $20 $1,040 $30 $1,560 $40 $2,080 $50 $2,600 $624 $24 $1,248 $36 $1,872 $48 $2,496 $60 $3,120 $728 $28 $1,456 $42 $2,184 $56 $2,912 $70 $3,640 $832 $32 $1,664 $48 $2,496 $64 $3,328 $80 $4,160 $936 $36 $1,872 $54 $2,808 $72 $3,744 $90 $4,680 $1,040 $40 $2,080 $60 $3,120 $80 $4,160 $100 $5,200 $1,248 $48 $2,496 $72 $3,744 $96 $4,992 $120 $6,240 $1,456 $56 $2,912 $84 $4,368 $112 $5,824 $140 $7,280 $1,664 $1,872 $64 $72 $3,328 $3,744 $96 $108 $4,992 $5,616 $128 $144 $6,656 $7,488 $160 $180 $8,320 $9,360
An example of how to use this chart If your familys total annual income for 2011 was $36,400 and your financial contributions totaled $728, you would have contributed 2% of your income last year. After prayerful consideration you may decide to increase your total giving to the 4% level, or $1,456 for this year. If you designate $500 for causes outside of our parish (diocesan collections, charities, etc.) that would leave $956 for St. Ann Parish, approximately $18.50 per week. We thank you for your generosity which helps us continue the good work of our parish. Sunday, March 18 Griffin Hall 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM
The Ministry Fair offers you the opportunity to see all the good works going on in St. Ann Parish. Representatives from all our parish groups will be on hand to talk with you about the work they do. There is nothing to buy and no pressure to join. Have a complimentary beverage and snack. Children are welcome in the play area while you browse the displays. Free door prizes are drawn three times during the fair. Prizes this year include gift certificates from Bridge Street Chocolate, Colonial Theatre, Gateway Pharmacy, Regal Theatres, Stortis Restaurant and Wawa as well as a wide assortment of candles, books and childrens selections. Again this year we will have a free drawing for a Family Membership to the Philadelphia Zoo.
