We are still updating our records. If you have moved during the last year, please notify us of your new address. If you receive printed envelopes monthly in the mail, please use those envelopes and not the green envelopes from the Church. The printed envelopes have all the information we need to ensure that you receive credit for your donations. Thank you.

Todavía estamos actualizando nuestros registros. Si se ha mudado durante el último año, por favor notifíquenos su nueva dirección. Si recibe sobres impresos mensualmente por correo, utilice esos sobres y no los sobres verdes de la Iglesia. Los sobres impresos tienen toda la invormación que necesitamos para garantizar que reciba crédito por sus donaciones. Gracias.

Registered Parishioners receive a registration # when we enter their information into our system. This is also used as your envelope #.

• You will not receive the preprinted envelopes unless you have been making contributions regularly. It can take 2 mailings (2 months) before you begin receiving the envelopes (or changes in name/address will be seen)

• If you want to receive envelopes by mail, you must register and use the 1st packet we give you. Forms are by the church doors, gathering space or Parish Office.

• If you are receiving envelopes in the mail, but you want to stop receiving them, let the office know.

To remain “Active” in our system it is important to use envelopes regularly. You can use the green/white envelopes found in the racks in church/lobby areas. Thank you!

The majority of the blue recycle containers have arrived. They will be distributed to the classrooms and offices. We have more on the way and the larger containers for the cafeteria are in transit.

The yellow & green container will be removed at the end of December. Until then we can continue to put ONLY PAPER in that container. The blue, single stream, or mixed, recycle container can be used for ALL RECYCLE materials.

We must depend upon YOU, our parishioners, to do your part in this recycling effort. Let’s all become more conscious of recycling and remind each other.

-Recycle bottles, cans, paper and cardboard

-Keep food and liquid OUT OF recycling

-No loose plastic bags or colored trash bags

Blue containers with the recycle logo are for recycle only. NO TRASH, FOOD or LIQUIDS.

Recyclable materials:

-Empty glass or plastic bottles or aluminum cans

-Clean plastic, glass or food cans – contain no liquid or food

-Paper and cardboard – clean

In the following weeks, we will keep you updated on our progress in our recycling efforts. We’ll also go into more detail what items and materials are recyclable. Thanks, Bernadette Allison.
