Starting in June we have designated three organizations to receive 10 % of what we receive in offerings. We have given to three very different and worthy groups; Mt Vernon Virtuoso, Community Change .Org and MD. Food Bank. The Tithing team is meeting this week to select more groups for 2022
We have decided that we wanted to use a formula that
will allow us to have a consistent amount that we would allocate each
month.
We arrived at an amount of $ 160. 00 per
month.
The generosity of our parishoners has allowed us to
set this designated amount .
However, we also need your help in a very important
way. Our goal would be to have every
member of our Parish Community involved. We are committed to communicate to the parish on a consistent basis to
encourage your participation and to submit suggestions for worthy groups.
Again, we want
to hear from you and have everyone in our Parish Community involved in this
very important ministry.
We also have set a goal of inviting a representative
of the groups that have or will receive a donation to come speak to our Parish
Community. We have agreed that this is
an important aspect of this ministry so that everyone in the parish can see
first hand how their contribution is being used.
We have formed a team that will be responsible for “vetting”
and selecting the groups. If you think
you would be interested in being part of this team please contact Jacke Ryan,
Charlie Ernst, Alice Jo Weaver or Jane Papenberg
THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU FOR THE
GENEROSITY YOU HAVE SHOWN THAT ALLOWS US TO DO THIS
