We are thrilled to share the wonderful news from our recent Parish Gala! Thanks to your generous support, we raised an incredible $25,101.99 for our "Lighting the Future" campaign. This event not only showcased the strength and unity of our community but also significantly contributed to our goal of enhancing the lighting in our beloved church.
Our current balance for the Lighting Fund now stands at a remarkable $191,269.63, a testament to the commitment and generosity of our parish family. While we are incredibly grateful for this progress, we must also acknowledge the reality of rising costs. Since fund raising project began, the cost has increased by nearly 10%. The updated cost of the lighting proect is $227,931.00.
As we approach the season of giving, we invite you to reflect on the warmth and guidance that light brings into our lives. This Christmas season, let us come together to illuminate our church, a symbol of hope and community. Your continued donations will help us reach our goal and ensure that our church remains a bright beacon in our lives.
