Attached, please find the bulletin notes for the month of December in English and Spanish. Graphics are below.
In December, the focus is on end of year giving. We are encouraging your parishioners to make a gift in their will or via an IRA rollover to the parish endowment fund. We have also included a bulletin note for the Catholic Emergency Response Fund. We would be grateful if you would consider including this bulletin note as well. This fund has been created to provide food and emergency assistance for housing and utilities across the archdiocese.
Please consider using these notes in your parish bulletin to encourage planned gifts to your parish endowment fund, which will benefit your parish forever.
Some parishes have indicated that they would prefer a simple business card size graphic that they can just place in their bulletin. We are providing both formats to fit your parish’s needs! These graphics are also available on our website at https://www.cfnga.org/resources/parish-resources/.
We would like to work with you to increase your parish endowment fund, and we would like to make it as easy as possible to do so. These bulletin notes are just one way to communicate planned giving to your parishioners.
If you have any questions, please contact Juliet Greco at (404) 497-9440 or jgreco@cfnga.org.
