At that time, I reached out to all of you, and the response has been truly inspiring. So many of you adapted to the changes by donating online, in the mail, or by other creative means. Many of you adjusted the timing of your planned giving or made an additional sacrificial gift to meet the parish’s immediate needs. Even if you were only able to support St. Philip’s with your prayers, your generosity has kept our parish going through this time. COLLECTIONS REPORT While it is too early to say that we are “out of the woods,” your quick May 3 $25,097.67 response has enabled our parish to overcome the budget shortfall from Home Missions (Wk 2) $325.00 March and to prepare for the needs of the coming days. I am so Seminarian Fund $546.50 grateful to you all. May Our Heavenly Father bless you abundantly.

Paving is moving forward on our construction site; we have con- tinued progress on our parking lot, completed the first part of the driveway leading up to the future church, and paved part of Wal- singham Drive. Walsingham Drive: A Road in Honor of Our Lady Our parish was permitted to pick the name of the road on the southern boundary of our property, which is being built as our campus develops. A road to a church should have an appropriate name, and what could be more appropriate than Our Lady, who is indeed the “road” leading to her Son? Her “yes” to God permit- ted Christ to enter our world.
