As a balance to the annual funds, a bequest is a long-term, planned gift, one that gives only after the donor dies.

Marie Kehrli, a parishioner at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Lourdes, established an endowment dedicated to the education of seminarians eight years ago. Recently, Marie finalized details of a bequest she is gifting to her endowment, managed by the Catholic Foundation of Eastern Washington. Upon her death, the bequest will be added to her endowment, creating a strong and perpetual source of funding for theological education for seminarians.

Recently, I attended the St John Vianney School’s dinner & auction. I have a special regard for SJV School and Parish because 10 of my first cousins went through the school in the 60’s and I attended ever so many weddings in what was then a kind of makeshift Church. The SJV auction attracted a diverse and generous crowd from the school, the parish and the community. Bishop Daly offered the prayer and witnessed the bidding war for the dinner he generously offered for a key live auction item.
