As I approached my first anniversary as pastor of St. John Paul II Parish last June, I made my first financial report to you. As with that report, this message does not contain the details of the reports you have seen in the past. That information is available upon request. This message is more an explanation of the financial state of the parish than a collection of numbers. The table below shows the actual income vs. expenses for the last two fiscal years, 2017 and 2018.
