To: St. Matt’s Men’s Club
Gentlemen:
I want to acknowledge and thank you all for the wonderful “auction” that you conducted at your last meeting.
Two things were very impressive
1. The amount of money that was bid and collected!! That will be more than enough to make Christmas brighter for quite a few families at Community of Saints Regional Catholic School.
2. The generosity of the members: men who realized it was for charity and none of you was motivated by “what can I get for the least cost” but rather: “how much can I donate for a very good reason” spurred by some baked and cooked goods. It would be nice if everyone would realize how ‘charitable events’ work: donating is more important that ‘getting a bargain.’
May each of you enjoy a blessed, peaceful, and peace-filled Christmas day and season!
Sincerely,
John Riehle
Parish Administrator
