As many of you know, the financial responsibility of feeding our parish each week has grown as our community has grown. The Parish Council recently decided to begin budgeting $200 per week to help offset the cost of the ingredients for the Trapeza Teams to prepare our meals.

Accordingly, we would like to suggest a donation of $1 per person or $5 per family to help offset this expense. This donation is a suggestion, not a requirement and your generosity is appreciated! Donations should be made in the designated “Trapeza Fund” can that will be near the beginning of the serving line going forward.

Here, you’ll find important information about recent decisions, ongoing stewardship updates, upcoming projects, and ways we’re working to support the life and growth of our parish. Our goal is to keep you informed, involved, and connected as we continue to serve Christ and one another.

Parish Council members are:

New to our parish and wondering how to contribute?

We’re so glad you’re here! If you feel moved to support the life of our parish, there are a couple of simple ways to do so. While we’re currently working on setting up online donations, you’ll find a small box in the Narthex labeled “Tithes and Donations” where you can leave your offering.

Another meaningful way to help is by contributing to our Trapeza Fund, which pays for a festal meals and keeps our weekly fellowship meals going strong. If you’d like to give, there’s a clearly marked coffee can labeled “Trapeza Fund” in the Trapeza. Additionally, if you would like to join one of our four Trapeza teams, please let Elena Ellis know.

Your generosity, no matter the size, helps nourish both body and soul. Thank you for being part of our community!
