As with most everything at this time, the 2019-2020 State of the Parish will look a little different this year. We will have an abbreviated presentation at the 5pm Mass on Saturday, 11/7 (that will be live-streamed) and at the 10:30am Mass on Sunday, 11/8 (not live-streamed). After Mass, a video will be emailed to families that shows our current financial picture, highlighting the great things you have helped St. John accomplish in the last fiscal year and asking you to prayerfully consider your financial commitment for 2021.
School families: In order to be eligible, and to remain eligible, for the Fair Share Parish Tuition Program, each family must meet the following criteria:
- Be registered in the Parish – you may do this at the parish office or online at www.stjohnsea.org
- Be active in the life of the parish including:
- “Attend” the State of the Parish presentation by accessing the video online via an email with a link beginning Saturday, 11/7 after the 5pm Mass
- Be supportive of or involved in one of the many ministries of the parish
- File a stewardship pledge card if you are a new family or you have changed your pledge amount; otherwise, your pledge will automatically roll over from 2020
- Make a consistent effort to meet that pledge
This year, school families will receive their packets in the mail, which will include the pledge card and Stewardship Agreement.
