Letter from Msgr. Makarios Wehbi

October 28, 2024
Dear Beloved Jesus the King Parishioners,
As we approach this new season of reflection and we come together as a united Jesus the King family in Christ, I want to share this verse from Luke 6:38: “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap.” These words remind us of the beauty of generosity and its power to enrich our lives.
I want to take a moment to talk about our Jesus the King annual tithing donations. In recent years, we’ve noticed a decline in contributions as listed below:
Year | Families | Tithing |
2020 | 79 | 23,702 |
2021 | 161 | 48,300 |
2022 | 84 | 25,201 |
2023 | 69 | 20,749 |
2024 | 32 | 9,669 |
Your generosity has always been a source of strength for us, allowing Jesus the King church to meet its financial obligations and continue its mission. I invite you to consider renewing your annual tithing commitment to our Jesus the King Church for the coming year.

With heartfelt blessings,
Msgr. Makarios Wehbi, BSO
