"Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have; God is pleased by sacrifices of that kind."- Hebrews 13:16

Just $10 a week.
To help reduce our $100K annual deficit, that's all it would take - a $10 a week contribution from each family. In order to acheive this we are asking each family to contribute just $10 more each week.

Maybe it's saving on a Shelburne Falls Coffee Roasters coffee and making coffee at home. Plan ahead - instead of lunch at Applebees, bring leftovers to the office or make a delicious pot of homemade soup to last several lunches. Skip movie night out and stay in and watch a film. Consider a cash-back credit card and donate your savings. It's the little things that add up and you may not even feel it.

By finding just $10 more a week in your budget to include with your offering each week, it would ensure that we can pay our utility bills, insurance, salaries for clergy and staff, and all the other expenses involved in operating our parish. It will support our many ministries by providing religious education books and materials, Bibles for the St. Dimas Jail Ministry, additional ingredients for the Community Meals, events, lectures and more, ensuring that we won't need to continue to deplete our savings each year.

In order to reach our goal, we are asking that everyone participate by increasing their gift by and average of $10 more per family. Some may be able to afford more, some may only be able to afford to give less than the suggested additional $10. But together, we can reach this goal.  Are you in?
