I think it's always good to seek perspective from other places, parishes, even religions. So, from time to time, I'll post links to other places for people to see. Eventually, I'll put them all in a folder for safekeeping.

Ever wonder how much the bulletin costs to print each week? It costs the parish nothing! Our printing costs are taken care of by the businesses who sponsor ads on the back cover. If you look at it today, you will see two ads, St. Peter’s Cemetery and Café Milano. The rest of the ads are just “filler”. We need your help in getting more ads! When you shop, have your nails and/or hair done, when you visit your doctor or dentist, please ask them to consider placing an ad in our bulletin. You can give them the phone number on the back of the bulletin, or call the rectory with the name of the person you spoke with a phone number and we will have the bulletin company contact them.
