Dear Friends of Carmel Mission,
I recently received word from the Diocese of Monterey, confirming that we have surpassed our AMA target of $150,000.00.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
We have gained the distinction of being the parish in our diocese that has raised the most during the 2019 Campaign.
We have also more contributors than any other parish. In fact, we have almost doubled the number of donors we had last year.
You are truly an amazingly generous community and you have once again astonished those begrudgers who claimed that it was not possible to raise that amount of money – an extra $50,000.00 over last year’s goal.
I have received numerous compliments on our beautiful renewed pews, from parishioners and visitors alike. They will certainly enhance the interior of our sacred basilica for many years to come.
I want to pay a special tribute to our AMA Coordinator, and Parish Finance Council member, Paul Hoffman, whose enthusiasm and leadership has once again steered us to a truly successful conclusion of our 2019 Campaign.
You, dear Friends of Carmel Mission, have once again amazed me by your selfless stewardship and your love of our beautiful and blessed Parish.
In the great love of our Risen Lord,
Fr. Paul
