Last Sunday at Mass he gave the ministry a check for $15,000. I and everyone was quite moved, never expecting or asking for return payment. The board has suggested that we place this amount into a money market. We will use the interest and save the principle for emergencies. Thanks first to our member and secondly to you all for your non-stop generosity!
