A WONDERFUL PROBLEM TO HAVE! Foundations in Faith is thrilled to provide a grant to address a wonderful problem for us Catholics to have. One of our Parishes has so many families wanting to attend Mass that it regularly fills beyond capacity. Police are needed to oversee parking and when the lot is full the officers direct folks down the street to another Parish now offering additional Masses to support the overflow. Hallelujah! The One (derful) problem to have
Foundation in Faith Announces Grants Totaling Over $384,000 for Priests and Catholic Schools. On March 26th, the Foundations in Faith Board of Trustees approved a grant for $223,322 to the Office of the Superintendent of Catholic Schools. This is in addition to the $161,600 approved for distribution to support Priests (Office of Vacations, Seminarians, and Retired Priests). This represents a total distribution of $384,922 in General Operating Support grants. What is next? In June, the Foundations in Faith Board of Trustees will be approving a similar amount in Program Support grants. Stay tuned! These General Operating Support grants are made possible by generous donors who have designated their donations to these essential ministries. Interested in exploring your legacy?

The timing could not have been better! This week, Foundations in Faith, Board of Trustees approved several significant grants to support Priests in the Diocese of Bridgeport. According to Kelly Weldon, the Board takes a holistic, three-pronged approach to enhancing the formation of Priests.
The first prong funnels funds into the recruitment and discernment of men sensing a calling to the priesthood by approving a grant to the Office of Vocations for $29,213.
The second prong targets committed seminarians with a grant for $95,794 to offset education costs; primarily tuition, room, and board.
The third prong ensures that our retired Priests are well cared for. The Board of Trustees approved a grant for $36,593 to cover general operating expenses at Our Queen of Clergy retirement home for Priests located in Stamford.
Some very ‘Good News’ is that the number of men discerning and entering the seminaries is growing. A needed trend that like Easter brings us great hope for the future of our Catholic Church.
With Easter just three days away, Foundations in Faith is pleased to announce these grants totaling $161,600 to support the Priesthood. We are most grateful to all our amazing Priests.
