"Planting the Seed of our Faith" Capital Plan Update:
Capital Campaign Goal: $2,000,000
Total Dollars Pledged: $1,807,081

Our campaign has been a great success thus far, but has not yet met our needed goal. We are presently looking for volunteers to help us continue in our efforts. Every little bit helps and no donation of time or money is too little. If you haven't made a pledge or would like to increase your present pledge, please prayerfully consider doing so! You may contact Mary Kellen at 782-2992 ext 237. 
 

 MARCH FOR LIFE 2006

The 34TH Anniversary of Roe v. Wade   will be remembered in Washington D.C. on January 23rd, 2006.  St. Magdalen de Pazzi Parishioners will be there so that as individuals and as a country we can memorialize the 40+ million lives that we have lost through legalized abortion.  This is an occasion where we not only remember, but commit ourselves to promoting the sanctity of human life.
 
Buses will leave St. Magdalen's after the 7:00 AM Mass and return to the Church by 9:30 PM. Coffee, juice and breakfast snacks will be provided before we leave, bring money for lunch and dinner. (We will stop as a group for dinner on the way home.)
 

St. Magdalen's is sponsoring the buses, however, reservations are required and will be accepted until Sunday, January 15th.  Sign up on the list in the Narthex, or by calling the Parish Office at 782-2922 ext. 210.  For more information please call Dee at 782-8081
