Pentecost- June 8, 2025

It is through the transformative power of the Holy Spirit that we receive the gifts of wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and fear of the Lord. These gifts help us to live our lives according to God’s will and to spread the message of the Gospel to others. The Holy Spirit empowers us to bear witness to our faith and to live out our calling as followers of Christ.

As Christian stewards, we share the responsibility of making our Church a true community of faith and a vibrant source of service to the larger community. That includes providing financial support for today's needs -- and building a firm financial foundation for St. Wendelin's tomorrow. Your IRA can be a tool to help you do this. If you are 70 ½ years old or older, you can make a Qualified Charitable Distribution today for up to $100,000 from your IRA directly to your parish. It will not count as taxable income, and it can satisfy your “required minimum distribution”. Looking to the future, consider naming our parish as a beneficiary IRA. Speak with your financial advisor. Thank you!
