Dear St. Catherine Parishioners,
We hope and pray that you and your families are doing well.
On Saturday February 18th, 2012, the Denver Metropolitan IOCC Committee is sponsoring its Annual IOCC Awareness Dinner at the Assumption Cathedral. The flier and invitation for the event are attached. Tickets are available for $30 per person and $10 for children 15 and under.
In an effort to encourage as many of our parishioners and young families as possible to participate, our Parish Council has budgeted $1,000 that can be used to assist towards the ticket prices for families.
Our annual parish budget has a dedicated line item for the IOCC and the Parish Council has chosen to leverage a portion of these funds in support of this event.
The way that this program this will work, is that a family of any size can pay $30 (or more) towards the total amount it would cost their family to attend, and St. Catherine Parish will contribute towards the remainder of the ticket price from the funds that are earmarked to support the IOCC. We hope in this way to encourage young families to attend who might not otherwise be able to do so.
The IOCC is such an important ministry of our Orthodox Church and we at St. Catherine are committed in our support of their worldwide humanitarian efforts.

With our Lord’s blessings,
Father Lou
