We are still seeking a donation of space suitable for a Mission House and Chapel.

As you all are aware we have been seeking a way to have a suitable space for an office, chapel and possible rectory for our Franciscan order and the
ministry.   After considerable consultation with the IRS (Internal Revenue Service) I have discovered that if a Realtor or property owner had a
suitable piece of property that they normally would rent that they desired to offer to the ministry RENT FREE, the market value of that property
could become a deduction worth 50% (fifty percent) of their adjusted gross income.
The following is an example:
John Henry owns a number of houses that he rents.  He normally rents the property for $2,000 (Two Thousand) per month.
He offers to allow the mission the rent the property, for $1.00 a month.      He claims that $1.00 as income.
We give John Henry an acknowledgement of a donation of $1,999.00 a month.
If John Henry has a mortgage on the property. His interest on that mortgage is 149.00 a month.
He has to subtract that interest from the $1999.00 which leaves the actual amount he is able to deduct as $1,850 per month.
Or an annual donation of $22,200 a year.
If His adjusted Gross income is more than $49,200 a year he can deduct the total amount from his income taxes of $22,200.
In addition, the property becomes exempt from property taxes because it is being used by a recognized Religious Tax Exempt organization for the
entire time the religious organization occupies the property.

I am seeking your help, I realize that it is difficult for many of you to make financial donations to the ministry, but you can help by searching your
contacts who might have a piece of property that would be suitable and putting forth the idea that they make it available to us as a donation under
the terms described above. You can also help further the ministry by letting those who you believe could benefit from the ministry or who might
agree with the goals of the ministry know about us and our web site and groups.

Please Help Us!
This ministry is totally dependent on the generosity of others.  Please consider making a pledge to donate at least $.05 or $.10 (Five
or ten Cents) a day to help us continue the work of the ministry. Your commitment to this small bit would mean between $18.25 and
$36.50 per person times the more than 300 we reach weekly could mean over $10,000 a year which would allow us to expand our
ministry and eliminate the debt.
Our Information booths at Pride Festivals costs an average of $ 485.00 per festival which includes the printing of handouts,
registration and liability insurance.  
Because of our participation again this year and necessary repairs to the missions only source of transportation our mission is in
debt over $3,250.00.
We are continually receiving requests to assist people but are limited because of financial constraints.  All donations are tax
deductible and can be made using the PAYPAL links on this web site or mailing directly to the missions bank account .
