BAPTISMS
Baptisms are every Sunday at 1:00 PM. Parents are asked to call the Parish Center and speak with the Priest or Deacon who is on call and who will assist them in registering their child for Baptism. The Church assists the parents by offering instruction on the meaning, importance, and responsibilities of the sacrament of Baptism. A Pre-Jordan Baptismal Program for helping parents prepare for the spiritual birth of their child is held on the fourth Sunday of the month in the Spirituality Center following the Noon Mass.
WEDDINGS
Couples planning to marry are asked to contact a Parish priest to make arrangements for a wedding.

Dear Parishioners,
Below is the 2011 – 2012 Financial Report for Saint Anselm Parish and School. The previous three years are there as well for you to compare. By offering you – the worshipping, contributing members of the Church – this comparative report, I strive to keep you informed and knowledgeable about the parish’s operating income and expenses.
I cannot thank enough our parishioners who contribute weekly or monthly and so generously to the support of the Parish. So let me thank you again. I am deeply grateful to each and every person who financially contributes to Saint Anselm Church. I am most grateful to the Finance Council (Elinor Leshinski, Rich Myslinski, Deacon Warner and Terry Grillo) for their counsel, insight, direction, and for helping the Parish have a balanced operating budget. Our records show that 2,883 families (8,192 parishioners) belong to Saint Anselm Parish.
I ask that all parishioners maintain their level of contributions to the Church. If you can increase it weekly or occasionally, please do so. Thank you. Father Dunleavy

Comment: The generosity of those who give sacrificially and generously is commendable.
Only 20% of Registered Parishioners attend Mass weekly. Saint Anselm Parish needs the presence,
participation, and generous financial contributions from the other 80%.
Pastoral Administration
The figure reflects revenues spent throughout the Jubilee Year celebrating our 50th anniversary.
Church Utilities: decreased (A mild winter! Let’s have another one!!!)
Tuition Income $1,014,103 Our School families are very supportive!
Socials – Donations Total: $177,314
This is commendable. I am grateful to all who make our fundraising the success that it is. All Socials and fundraisers are held to raise income for the school.
Salaries of Lay Faculty 2010-11 there were 2 less teachers; 2011-12 there was one more teacher

2011 – 12 Total Excess Operating Income 211,814 (Church) minus (-120,593) School = 91,221
The excess funds figures $91,221 includes $19,050 in school registration fees and $31,749 for school tuition for fiscal 2012-12. Subtracting these figures brings the excess funds down to $40,422 which is from the Church’s side. These excess funds from the Church side of the fiscal report become reserved funds for Church use. Reserved funds are used for emergency and unbudgeted needs. For example, last fiscal year $22,650 of these reserved funds were used for heating control upgradings on our School/Church heating system.
“0” Deficit Spending Saint Anselm Parish operates in the black and there was no deficit spending for the fiscal years shown
Heritage of Faith – Vision of Hope Archdiocesan Campaign
Since 2009, parishioners from Saint Anselm Parish have been fulfilling their pledges to this Archdiocesan Campaign. This Campaign has sought to raise funds for Catholic Human Services, Clergy Retirement, St. Charles Seminary, the Cathedral, and Catholic Education.
Each parish is given 35% of the total amount given to the Campaign. As of June 30, 2012,
Saint Anselm Parishioners have pledged $838,948. Should all these pledges be fulfilled, Saint Anselm Parish would receive $293,631.800 (which is 35%). As of June 30th , $432,034.78 in pledge monies has been received.
At the time of the Campaign, we identified the parish portion of this money would be used for: New Roof Annex School Building; Parking Lot Resurfacing, and a new Kitchen in the Church Hall.
To date, the Heritage of Faith Campaign has made it possible for the following to be done:
New Roof Annex School Building $ 66,450. 00
Resurfacing Parking Lot (July 2010) $ 54,600. 00
New Pizza Oven in Kitchen 7,157. 60
Parking Lot Repairs (April 2012) 4,700 .00
New Tables/Equipment for Kitchen 757. 41
Total Received $ 133,665.01
Funds Available as of June 30, 2012 $ 72,668.86
These funds are being utilized for the renovation of the Kitchen in the Church Hall which is underway. A complete report will be forthcoming when the project is complete.
Saint Anselm Parish has been the recipient of the generosity of people who have and who continue to fulfill their pledges to the Archdiocesan Heritage of Faith - Vision of Hope Campaign. Thank you very, very much for your generosity which is benefiting both Saint Anselm Parish and the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.

Feast of Saint Therese – October 1st
Born January 2, 1873, Therese became a Carmelite sister at the age of 15. She died September 30, 1897 at the age of 24. St. Therese was beatified on April 29, 1923 and proclaimed a saint on May 17, 1925 (28 years after her death). St. Therese was declared a Doctor of the church in October, 1997.
Therese Martin never went to a foreign land, never was awarded a Medal of Honor, never built a hospital or started an organization. Therese Martin became a saint by doing ordinary things…extra ordinarily well! We cannot all do great things, but we can be like St. Therese, who showed us that loving and being faithful in little things is just as important.
St. Therese, also know as the “Little Flower”, is usually pictured with roses. She promised that she would spend heaven doing good on earth… “After my death, you will see a shower of roses”.
October 2nd - Feast of the Guardian Angels
Angels are messengers from God. In a real but unseen way, these powerful spirits point out to us the ways of God. Guardian angels assist us in the task of living as God’s children. In times of temptations, these spiritual beings direct us to do good. Perhaps the guardian angels are best known for protecting us from physical danger, but their main role is to care for the salvation of souls. It is wonderful to know that God has promised to love, protect, and be with us always. One way God does this is through the care of angels. Whether we meet with danger or discouragement, our guardian angels are our personal, heavenly bodyguards. Please offer a prayer of thanks to God for how God guards and protects you.
