Jamie Gigantiello, vicar for development, presents Father Robert Whelan, pastor of Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament, Bayside, and members of the parish with a check for more than $6,000, representing the amount that the parish has exceeded its assigned goal for the 2013 Annual Catholic Appeal (ACA). If all pledges are paid in full, the parish can receive nearly $7,000 in additional funds.
