A Letter from the TrusteesMay 13, 2020
Dear fellow parishioner,
We are writing on behalf of Msgr. Ferry and Father Joseph as St. Patrick’s lay trustees. We hope and pray that you and your family are well during this difficult time. Please know that Msgr. Ferry and Fr. Joseph pray for us daily and cannot wait for our parish family to be able to congregate together as a faith community.
A few weeks before the pandemic hit, we addressed all Masses to communicate that we were running a $40,000 annual deficit and we were encouraging people to both consider increasing their weekly donations and sign up for WeShare for their weekly donations.
Then, a few weeks later, Masses were cancelled. On the positive side, a number of people have been mailing in their donations, WeShare participation has increased and a few parishioners have taken advantage of corporate matching programs with their donations. However, weekly donations are still down meaningfully and Easter Sunday donations declined -42% versus last year. Assuming a similar decline in May, we will have a 3-month shortfall of $35,000 to $40,000. As we mentioned in our February plea, the Parish has done a lot of belt tightening wherever we could over the past 18 months but most of our go-forward expenses are fixed. Before the pandemic, we were hopeful that the Parish would quickly respond to our plea and our weekly income would increase enough to eliminate the weekly deficit. Unfortunately, we now face a double whammy and we really need to step up as a parish community.
There are several ways you can help:- Make a one-time donation to help us make up the Covid-driven shortfall. If your company happens to match, please take advantage of it.
- Please join WeShare and sign up for regular weekly donations. It will really help the Parish if we have steady weekly income. Signing up is easy as there is a link on the St. Patrick’s website. https://www.churchgiving.com/?pc=aqqyw421
- Please make your Easter donation if you haven’t. Again, Easter donations were down -42% and it would really help if we narrowed the gap.
- Regular Weekly Donations – If you are not using WeShare, please mail your envelopes to:

Bedford, NY 10506In addition, our carnival is a big annual fundraiser that has been postponed. Fortunately, our carnival team worked tirelessly and was able to secure an October date and we are hopeful it can raise what it typically does in May (hopefully rain will be less of an issue!)
On behalf of Monsignor Ferry and Father Joseph, we thank you in advance for your generosity during this challenging time. We all look forward to coming together as a faith community in person in the near future. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us directly at czepf1@gmail.com, Gerri_Alfino@yahoo.com or Msgr. Ferry at patrick485@optonline.net.
Sincerely,
Chris Zepf Gerri Alfino
