Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

As we journey together through this holy season of Lent, we are called to reflect on the profound love of our Savior, who gave everything for us. This season invites us to respond in gratitude—not only through prayer and fasting, but also through almsgiving, a pillar of our Lenten practice.

At St. Raymond, your generosity is more than a gift; it is an act of discipleship. When you give, you become co-laborers in Christ’s mission, supporting the sacraments, outreach, and ministries that bring His light to our community and beyond. Your stewardship is a tangible expression of faith, a way to live out the Gospel and build up the Body of Christ.

This Lent, we invite you to consider a recurring gift through our giving portal. By doing so, you help ensure the stability and vitality of our parish, allowing us to plan and serve with confidence. Whether your gift is large or small, it is a sacred offering, a partnership in the work of the Church.

Let us remember the words of St. Paul: “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver” (2 Corinthians 9:7). May your generosity this Lent be a joyful response to God’s boundless love.

With gratitude and prayers for a blessed Lenten season,

Victor Martinez
St. Raymond Catholic Church
