Dear Brothers and Sisters:

I would like to take this opportunity to extend my sincere thanks to you and your families for your continued support of St. Anthony of Padua Parish.

It is my great pleasure to announce that the annual #iGiveCatholic campaign will take place on Tuesday, November 30, 2021; Advanced daily donations begin Monday, November 15. This campaign is an online giving event sponsored by the Archdiocese of New Orleans Catholic Foundation each year and benefits Catholic churches, Catholic schools, and Catholic organizations across the country.

Thanks to your generosity, we raised our goal during last year's #iGiveCatholic campaign, for which I am extremely grateful. Our goal this year is $20,000, which is to raise funds to repair, with the raised funds, repairs will be made to the priory office woodwork that suffered extensive termite damage; and also to repair the peeling paint and plaster on the sacristy ceiling and walls.

Are you willing to be part of this restoration project?

If you can help, you can contribute online starting Monday, November 15, 2021; the online campaign ends at midnight on Tuesday, November 30, 2021. To access our #iGiveCatholic website, visit our website,  www.sapparish.org  and click on the iGiveCatholic icon. If you prefer to donate by check or cash, which can be delivered at any time, place the donation in an envelope marked "Window Restoration." These donations can be mailed or taken to the parish office or deposited in any collection basket at Mass. All donations are greatly appreciated.
