Help to grow our parish and build a strong community of faith.

Can we lean into today’s challenges and increase our average weekly attendance by 200 people?

Imagine 200 more people who are strengthened each week by the graces of mercy, strength, and wisdom of the Eucharist so that they can fearlessly engage with the world with Jesus within them and beside them.

Can we, United in Faith and Community, increase our average weekly collections by $2500?

Consider what we could do with $130,000 more each year to update our facilities, develop new ministries, and provide more resources to our families.

How can we build our community of faith?

•We can talk to others about the importance of the Mass / Eucharist in our own lives.
•We can contribute to making Saint Rita a warm, friendly, welcoming environment to all.
•We can reach out to others and make a personal connection and let our witness and joy do the “talking”.
•We can be attentive to meeting the needs of those who have either left Saint Rita Church or are unchurched.

Invite your families, friends, and neighbors to join us at St. Rita for Mass, fellowship, spiritual support, education (adult and youth), and service. We believe engaging young people and families is key to our long-term success. Our school, faith formation, and sacrament programs, along with our many fellowship events, are all ways to support families on their Christian journey.

Why is it important to increase our offertory giving?

It is not easy to talk about money – although there are many references to it in the Bible. Ultimately our goals are to grow faith, promote living a moral and spiritual life, and help each other become disciples of our Lord. Money is never the end goal, but one of the means we use to serve God.

Raising the annual offertory will go a long way towards covering the following objectives:

•Successfully carry out the ministries of Saint Rita in the areas of worship and spiritual direction, fellowship and community, education, and service to others
•Increase teacher and staff wages to sustainable living levels
•Maintain the Saint Rita campus, replacing things as they break and rust and making needed improvements to keep our facilities in good shape

Parishioners are requested to positively, prayerfully, and generously respond to our need to increase our regular weekly collections.
