St. Cecilia Church

Dear Parishioners,

Please know that we are praying for you, your families and for the entire world during this
difficult time in our history.

I am now writing to ask for your support of the Archdiocesan-wide initiative that Cardinal Tobin
has launched to help all the parishes of the Archdiocese of Newark in response to the effects of
the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on everyday life.

We are coordinating with the team at GoFundMe, a leading online giving organization, to
provide a way of helping to support our parish. As with all of you, our parish bills continue to
come in and must be paid. Since we are unable to have weekly Masses in person, our collections
have gone down significantly. We are relying upon your help to see our parish through these
difficult days and ask that if you are able, to please consider making a tax-deductible donation to
our parish. We have set our goal at $6500.00 which would be our normal weekly collection. The
link to our GoFundMe site is listed below:

You can still mail in your weekly envelopes or drop them off at the parish office. If you already
pay many of your bills online you can setup St. Cecilia Church as a bill, include the church
address at 55 W. Demarest Ave., Englewood, NJ 07631 and put your envelope number in place
of an invoice number, then the bank will send the payment directly to us. We will make sure that
your account is properly credited.

Finally, if we can be of any assistance to you or your families, please let us know.

God bless!
Fr. Herman
