This is the St Michael Finance Report for the first quarter of the 2026~2027 fiscal year (7/1/26 through 9/30/26). We thank you for helping our parish to meet its financial responsibilities. We thank you for the generosity you show through your presence at Holy Mass, your prayers and volunteering. One of the projects that will soon take place is repairing the top of the Bell Tower. It will look a lot better but more importantly it will be safer.  

Catholic Services Appeal 2026 ~ “Christ Dwells in our Midst” – As you are aware, the gifts you give to CSA help our parish to meet its commitment to the Diocese of Reno. The gifts from the many parishes in the Diocese of Reno helps with supporting the important Catholic ministries in Northern Nevada. It would be great if St Michael met their goal and we could be ranked up at the top of the list of participating parishes! We can only do that with your generosity! Thank you!

St Michael Progress as of 10/23/26
St Michael Goal $45,541  Paid $34,925  Even though we are at 76% of the goal we still need $10,616 to fulfill the obligation.

There are 243 registered St Michael’s families. So far only 60 have given a gift. Please, if you have not yet made a gift there is still time. Gifts to CSA can be given through Dec 31, 2026. Pledge cards are in the back of the church or in the parish office. If you are unable to donate, we appreciate your prayers.
