FUND RAISING CAMPAIGN - RENOVATIONS UPDATE
Grateful for the Past … Giving for Our Future Campaign
We
have reached the 80% mark in the campaign! Very well done but we continue
to accept your Donations and Pledges until we reach our target. Pledges can
be made either by mail, drop-off at the office, or the collection plate. Be
sure to mark the envelopes as “Fundraising”. Tax receipts for all
monies received before December 31, 2011, will be issued in January, 2012. The
pledge total will be updated each weekend and posted here
and on the boards at each entrance to the church. Any questions, concerns, please
call Barbara Smith, Administrative Assistant, Fundraising Committee, at 519-824-4795,
or by email at: smithbarbaraj@rogers.com
We wish to thank everyone for your generous support thus far of our fund raising
campaign.
It is expected that the renovation work will start by the end of January.
From time to time, an inspirational item or a humorous anecdote will be posted for your enjoyment.
