our gifts in His name there is always more than enough!

Prayer Ministry
Volunteers
Now that we have moved back into
our newly restored Cathedral, you
are asked to please consider helping
in restoring the Ministry of Prayer
that was begun almost 20 years ago. This Ministry
centered on having people who are homebound pray
for the members of our parish and for the personal
intentions that are, on a weekly basis, placed in the
prayer box at the Shrine of the American Saints. The
prayers offered by these people, who were once active
in our community and now homebound, are a powerful
force of interceding with God for those who are
in need. At the current time, a small group of people
is being sought who would be willing to help with
coordinating this ministry and facilitating the various
requests that are sent to the homebound Prayer
Ministers. If you are willing to help in this endeavor
or would like more information, please contact
Father Bill Koenig at the Rectory at 766-0205.

Do you know someone who might

Eucharist and Confirmation? You

involved in being received into the
Catholic Church through the Rite of Christian
Initiation of Adults (RCIA for short). Our next meeting
is Sunday, June 5th following the 11:00 a.m. Mass

sharing their faith as part of the RCIA team.

The IRA Charitable
Rollover is back and is
now permanent !
What’s called a rollover is actually a “qualified charitable distribution”
that can be made to our Parish.
If…
1. You are at least 70 1/2 years old on the date you make your gift
2. Your IRA is a traditional or Roth
3. You don’t exceed your personal maximum of $100,000 per year in qualified charitable
distributions
You will not have to report your distribution as income. It will be free of federal
and New York State income tax, and it will count toward your required minimum
distribution (RMD).
The best way for you to start is with your IRA custodian. Tell them you want to make a
“qualified charitable distribution”. In most cases you will only have to fill out a simple
form.
VERY IMPORTANT!! Your gift must go directly from your IRA to the Parish. If you
receive the money first then you’ll be taxed on it like any other distribution.
Example: Mrs. Connors, age 76, has $125,000 in a traditional IRA and would like to
contribute $5,000 to her Parish in 2016. Upon hearing of the Charitable IRA Rollover
opportunity, she directs the custodian of her IRA to transfer this amount not later than
December 31, 2016 directly to the Parish as a 2016 gift. She will not be subject to income
tax on her $5,000 qualified charitable
distribution.
