each family of our parish will experience progress, so that you will conƟnue to share your blessings with our beloved

for the work of faith, hope and love. May God conƟnue to bless and prosper you and your family which will lead you
to a greater commitment to his mission. Amen.
Respecƞully,
Fr. Emmanuel Akalue
Revenue $772,578.00
Through our offertory collections we were able to reseal the
driveways and parking spots,
build a ramp and votive candle
stand in the church, purchase a
new sound board and bell system, improve some of our lights
with more energy efficient
bulbs and have an Appreciation
Dinner. The largest accomplishment was reducing the building
debt.
In the near future we will need
to replace the church AC units,
the roof on our Servite Building, repaint the entire campus
buildings and upgrade to a new
phone system, so please continue to tithe to Our Lady of
Grace.
Time, Talent and Treasure is
how we accomplish all things
through God.
