The Fundraising Committee has been working very hard to plan events for the Fall and Winter season, and they are ready to share them for your enjoyment.<\/p>\n
We pray that each event is a success, but we don\u2019t want the events to come across as “it\u2019s all about the money.” It’s not all about the money. \u00a0It’s about a number of things: increasing opportunities for fun together, increasing opportunities to invite others to join us in our fun events and to learn more about us, and to raise funds to support important budget priorities.<\/p>\n
Additionally, each event is designed to provide opportunities for every parishioner to serve the church with his or her gifts as inspired by the Holy Spirit. The Apostle Paul said it best in 1 Corinthians 12:4-6, “There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work.” \u00a0Thanks be to God!<\/p>\n
