HAVE YOU REMEMBERED YOUR PARISH IN YOUR WILL?

Dear Parishioners:

When I came to St. Bede as Pastor, one of the things I was asked to do by the Archdiocese was to make a new will. It was then that I began to think more seriously about material possessions and death. Leaving the Church in your final will and testament is a Holy act. What greater testament could be made to the world, family and God than to say, I support my parish Church even in the end. Please consider leaving

St. Bede the Venerable Catholic Church in your Final Will and Testament. It assures that our parish will continue to do for others what it has done to bless you and help into paradise.

Fr. Alex Val ladares, Pastor
