EASTERN POINT RETREAT
2005 ANNUAL CATHOLIC APPEAL
FINDING GOD IN ALL THINGS
The Jesuit Urban Center is
hosting a weekend Retreat at

VerEecke, S.J.
Members of our parish
community are invited to attend. The cost of the
weekend is $185.

UPDATE
T HANK Y O U to all supporters of the Annual
Catholic Appeal.
If you have not yet given,
please consider a gift today and help us meet
our goal of $88,600. Remember, our parish will
receive 25 percent of all funds we raise above
our goal.
So each gift has the potential to
increase parish revenue while still supporting
the ministries funded by the Catholic Appeal.
