                                            Prosimy, aby w tym tygodniu zastanowić się przez chwilę nad broszurą
                                            otrzymaną wraz z dzisiejszym biuletynem. Prosimy pamiętać, że Doroczna
                                            Kwesta Katolicka jest czymś więcej niż jednorazową specjalną kolektą. Jest
                                            ona kampanią, podczas której możesz złożyć zobowiązanie spłacane w
                                            ratach. Hasło tegorocznej Kwesty 2018 to „Pójdź za mną” Każde
                                            zobowiązanie przyczyni się do wprowadzania realnych, dobrych zmian, gdyż
                                            wszystkie parafie uczestniczą w Kweście, a ofiary wielu osób umożliwiają
                                            naszej archidiecezji realizację koniecznych dzieł duszpasterskich, aby
                                            odpowiedzieć na wezwanie Jezusa „Pójdź za mną”.
                                            Kiedy nasza parafia osiągnie swoją kwotę docelową, czyli $ 32,112 w
                                            gotówce, to 100% dodatkowo zebranych funduszy zostanie zwrócona do
                                            parafii na zaspokojenie jej własnych potrzeb.

                                            Jeśli otrzymałeś pocztą formularz zobowiązania finansowego, prosimy
                                            wypełnić go i odesłać pod wskazany adres lub przynieść do kościoła na Mszę
                                            św. Dla tych, którzy nie otrzymali formularzy pocztą lub nie mieli czasu, aby
                                            odpowiedzieć na korespondencję, zostanie przeprowadzona specjalna akcja
                                            składania zobowiązań. Będzie ona miała miejsce w przyszłym tygodniu,
                                            podczas wszystkich Mszy św. Dziękujemy za poparte modlitwą rozważenie
                                            złożenia hojnego daru.
