Leave a Legacy You can leverage the gift you leave to St. Bernard Parish and inspire others to make a similar gift. Contact the Humboldt Area Foundation (442-2993) and your financial advisor to discuss a Charitable Gift Annuity (to increase your cash flow and save taxes) or a Charitable Remainder Trust (to dispose of assets without paying any capital gains taxes plus receive an income tax charitable deduction).

Diocesan Pastoral Council All You Want to Know — Diocesan Pastoral Council (DPC) was created six years ago by Bishop Walsh, at the request of a group of lay parishioners. Operating through local deaneries and its Executive Board, the DPC maintains a channel of communication between any interested parishioners and the bishop. Each spring the DPC conducts a workshop (plenary session), open to all parishioners, to review current challenges facing the diocese. If you would like to learn more about the DPC please call Phil Minor at (707) 267-0476, or e-mail at: minorbrew@peoplepc.com
