St Boniface Pastoral & Finance Combined Council Meeting

Sunday, February 12 at 11am

The St Boniface Finance and Pastoral Councils will hold a Combined Meeting on Sunday, February 12 at 11am in the Church Hall. The primary purpose is to update the Council Members on the workings of certain Parish Committees, specifically the Building Committee report on repair and maintenance that is proposed to be undertaken and the Capital Campaign, Member Engagement and Marketing Committee report on a proposed Capital Campaign to support work needed on the building. We will only have the hour between the 10am Mass and the Noon Mass so the meeting will be focused on those two topics only. All parishioners are invited to attend. Please keep in mind that discussion will be limited to Members of the Councils to keep the meeting under the one hour allotted time.

Comments and suggestions are welcome. Please complete a comment card and drop them in the baskets available at the entrances or in the collection baskets
