Shari Donaway of Salisbury won the trip to St. Bart’s. Congratulations Shari! We also had a drawing for the raffle sponsored by the Guilds and Tony Triglia of Delmar won that.
Our Goal Is Accomplished!
In the early part of 2010, our Centennial Year, we began the organ fund with the hope of raising money for two new organs for our parish churches. The staff decided we needed to raise the funds without compromising the charitable work we do through our 2nd collections and without affecting fundraising projects that were underway such as repair of our air conditioning and stained glass windows. Our goal of $120,000 was based on the cost of the organs plus the expenses of installation and fundraising. Through our raffles and appeals, through some last minute help from the Allen Organ Company to bring their prices and our funds closer together and through the many, many donations large and small of so many parishioners, we can now close our fundraising and declare our goal met! Again, I want to thank everyone who has sacrificed so much to make this dream happen. Two organ dedication concerts are being planned for the fall to which the whole parish will be invited.
Thank you, Bill Alexander
