Catholic Foundation Annual Report Endowments in Full Bloom at St. Wendel     Frank Lamble, Fr. Dave Nunning, and Allen Schmitt sit in the meditation garden at St. Wendel Cemetery on a sunny day in November 2002.  Throughout the years, seeds have been planted at parishes across the diocese. Amazingly, eleven new endowments have blossomed at St. Wendel Parish over the past two years. These endowments support the parish, the school and other specific ministries.  Father Ed Schnur, pastor at St. Wendel, attributes the recent flurry of activity to the fact that many families have realized that endowments are a way to establish a lasting tribute to a loved one. The parish also communicates in newsletters and bulletins about new endowments that have been established at the parish. These endowments create a perfect memorial bouquet to honor families for years to come.  Here .
