Understandably, with so much in flux, some people are hesitant to commit to financial investments ST. MAXIMILIAN KOLBE CATHOLIC SCHOOL right now. On that note, the parish finances have taken a hit Website: www.stmaxkolbeschool.org too. Since we are an organization which relies completely on School Phone: 763-972-2528 donations from people who may have their own financial School Principal: Mary Ziebell, ext. 228 struggles right now, and most of those donations come at our [email protected] weekly gatherings, which aren’t currently happening right now, it Administrative Assistant: Dawn McCabe, ext. 229 is no surprise that we have seen a significant decline in giving. [email protected] Whether this is because people are unable or have forgotten, we don’t know. We are really encouraging parishioners to switch to online giving if they are able. We did apply for the SBA St. Maximilian Kolbe Councils loan, which is giving us a little bit of breathing room. Pastoral Council Gail Sinkel, Chairperson, [email protected] I am so grateful for all of you, your continued support and B.J. Ludwig, Vice Chair, [email protected] encouragement during this time.
