Debt ReducƟon Campaign
Thank you to the many parishioners who have paid their pledges in full and those who have faithfully donated to the Debt
Reduction Campaign over the last 2 years. Because of your generosity, we were able to make an extra payment in the
amount of $750,000 on the principal balance of our debt in January. The monthly loan payment was also made in the amount
of $18,402 … $4,532 on the principal and $13,870 interest. We plan to re-amortize the loan to lower the monthly payments to
a more manageable amount and save on interest costs. We should have the new monthly amount in time for the March
payment and will share that information.
This is the second year we have been able to make a $750,000 principal payment. Since this Debt Reduction effort is a 3
year campaign, we hope to make another large principal payment ($750,000) in early 2021. We ask that those of you who
have paid your pledge in full prayerfully consider continuing to donate to the Debt Reduction effort throughout this third year
of the campaign. We need the financial support of all St. Mary parishioners to meet our campaign goal. May God reward your
sacrifice and generosity with His blessings!
In February the SECOND COLLECTION for the Debt Reduction Campaign will be held the third full weekend February 15
and 16. Although we have a special second collection once a month, donations can be made at any time using the GRAY
envelopes or online at www.stmaryp.org. Please designate your donations as Parish Center/Capital Campaign. Keep in mind
that donations cannot be credited to a pledge unless they are received with the donor's first and last name clearly indicated.
Gracias a los muchos feligreses que han pagado sus promesas por completo y a aquellos que con fidelidad han donado a la
Campaña de Reducción de Deuda por más de 2 años. Debido a su generosidad, pudimos hacer un pago adicional en enero
por la cantidad de $750,000 al balance del principal de nuestra deuda. El pago mensual fue también hecho por la cantidad
de $18,402…$4,532 al principal y $13,870 al interés. Planeamos amortizar de nuevo el préstamo para disminuir los pagos
mensuales a una cantidad más manejable y ahorrar en costos del interés. Debemos tener el nuevo pago mensual a tiempo
para el pago de marzo y compartiremos esa información.
Este es el segundo año en el que hemos podido hacer un pago adicional del $750,000 al principal. Ya que este esfuerzo de
reducción de deuda es una campaña de 3 años, esperamos hacer otro pago grande al principal ($750,000) a principios de
2021. Le pedimos a aquellas personas que han pagado su promesa por completo que en oración consideren continuar
donando al esfuerzo de reducción de deuda durante todo este tercer año de campaña. Necesitamos el apoyo financiero de
todos los feligreses de Sta. María para lograr nuestra meta de campaña. Que Dios recompense su sacrificio y generosidad
con sus bendiciones.
En febrero la SEGUNDA COLECTA para la Campaña de Reducción de Deuda tomará lugar el tercer fin de semana
completo febrero 15 y 16. Aunque tenemos una segunda colecta especial una vez al mes , los donativos pueden ser hechos
en cualquier momento usando los sobres GRISES o en línea en www.stmaryp.org. Por favor designe sus donativos como
“Parish Center/Capital Campaign”. Tenga en mente que los donativos no pueden ser acreditados a una promesa a no ser
que estos son recibidos con el nombre y apellido del donador claramente indicados.
