Thank you to all those who attended the last W of S.H. meeting.
Items discussed:
- Next meeting will be: 6 MAY, after the 9:30 mass in the Music Room. (Due to Mother's Day on the 2nd Sunday of the month)
- Fundraiser : for cleanup of the school kitchen will be a Money/Lottery tree - sorry no pictures available at this time. The total face value of the tree is $125.00 - approx. $60 cash & $65 worth of lottery tickets (with the potential of many lottery scratch off winnings). With the drawing to be held on Sunday 27 MAY.
I will need much assistance in selling tickets - $5.00 each. Father Joe has given us permission to sell tickets after all masses. I would appreciate all of us dividing up this task to sell sell sell. You can email me directly,
carol.spisso@usma.edu so I can set up a simple schedule. Also it would be nice if each member would take 10 tickets each to sell to their family and friends that would not necessarily be able to purchase after mass. I will have tickets and a flyer with picture of the $tree that can be picked up after the 5pm mass on Wed 25APR and in the Church office on Friday 27APR.
The funds raised will help augment the cost of the kitchen clean up. This will be done by CLA Commercial Cleaning, from Wayne NJ. I have sent pictures to the company of what we are looking to have done and have set up a meeting to have them do a site visit before starting work.
Before the actual cleaning will begin I will need a few volunteers to help move out chairs, tables and misc items floating around in there that should be moved elsewhere. Thank you in advance.
- Speaking of Volunteering: Linda Green volunteered to be the main POC for cleaning S.H. Church. Cleanings are done every 2nd Monday at 4:30pm. Please think about giving a hour of your time to help all the wonderful volunteers that make our Church such a beautiful place to spend time with the Lord.
- Greeters for Masses: We would love to start this endeavor up again. The Greeters would be at all doors of the church approx. 20 mins before mass and welcome all parishioners and visitors to Sacred Heart Church, and hand out church bulletins. Getting involved in such a small way can make a HUGE impact on others.
- Coffee & Doughnuts after all CCD children's masses: We will be assisting Mary Ann Brigham with her CCD event/s of having coffee & doughnuts after all masses on the day of the children's masses. I will send out more information closer to the actual dates.
Lastly a reminder to help support the Food Pantry and the Thrift Shoppe with their fundraiser of a fabric drop off in the school gym (stage area). All fabric items - clothes, shoes, linens etc will be bulk collected. Two birds with one stone - spring clean your house and help fund raise for a good cause.
Thank You and God Bless !!
