The purpose of the Fundraising Committee is to plan various events and activities that will bring additional revenues back into our faith community. These events and activities are open to the community-at-large so as to draw from a larger financial base. This will lessen the financial impact upon our parishioners as we seek support our for parish and its ministries and outreach programs.
Initially the Fundraising Committee was solely a St. Ambrose committee (before we became one) and all of the funds raised went to St. Ambrose. Now that the three churches are one in the Peace of Christ Parish, all funds raised will benefit all three sites. We need parishioners from the two other church sites to be on the committee. New members are needed…more the merrier and it’s a great way to share in the parish fellowship.
Some of the family and adult oriented events and activities that the Fundraising committee has sponsored or is looking to sponsor include:
The Fundraising Committee meets on an as-needed basis to prepare for activities and events as they occur. Much of our staying in touch involves the use of email so that we can quickly send ideas, dates, confirmations, and suggestions back and forth without taking away from our valuable family time.
Anyone interested in becoming a member of this new committee is encouraged to contact the parish office at 288-5000 for our next meeting date. We welcome anyone with new ideas to step forward!
