This spring when we presented our annual report to the parish, one of the parishioners noticed that we were running short of funds so she volunteered to organize a fundraiser . On Saturday April 27th there was a "scapbooking/ cardmaking day" including snacks, lunch, dinner and drinks

Over $500.00 profit was made which is enough to send an additional two children to summer camp .
Side benefits include a great time being had by all as well as raising our profile in our church community . I don't believe it is entirely a coincidence that we have been approached by two people considering joining us since having the fundraiser.
