Dear Our Lady of Ransom Family:
This is our last outside of Friday update for a while, but it has three very important items in it, so I'd ask you to pay close attention.
- Our $10,000 Evangelization Fund Matching Challenge ends tomorrow night. As it stands, we current have $8500. We need $1500 more in the next 36 hours to get the full amount of our donor match. So if you haven't given, or can give more, please make a donation at Give Central by clicking here. Also you can drop off your donation marked "Evangelization Fund" at the Ministry Center no latter than tomorrow night. Please remember, during this donor initiated challenge, the value of your donation is doubled, and 100% of the funds stay at Our Lady of Ransom.
- In past Lent and Advent seasons, many of you have participated in our beautiful sung evening prayer. We will again offer this wonderful prayer experience on Dec 1, 15, 22 at 6:15p in the church. We encourage you to come once or every time to experience one of the most ancient prayers of the Church done by professional musicians.
- 30 tickets to the in theater screening of the Christmas episode of "The Chosen" have been donated to our parish. For those you of that don't know, The Chosen is an outstanding TV series on the life of Christ and his disciples. This Christmas episode promises to be inspirational. We have 15 more free tickets available on a first come/first serve basis. Simply call the Ministry Center at 847.823.2550 to see if tickets are still available. The movie is this Wednesday at 7pm at the Niles AMC 12. Because we have a group block of tickets, anyone going will have to meet at 6:30p in front of the theater so we can enter as a single group.
He is Risen!
Fr. Matt Bozovsky
