ANNUAL CANVASS 2024-25
HOORAY! We have now officially hit our Annual Pledge Canvass original goal of $750,000.
Thanks to Reverend Vanessa, Reverend Laura, our great staff, The Music Man Mark Sumner and the choir, the hard-working Stewardship Committee, and all our members, friends, and regular visitors who joined hands and wallets to make this happen. We should all be proud of ourselves, knowing we have an exciting year of community sharing and caring ahead.
It has been a true pleasure to serve as the Annual Canvass Co-chairs this year.
Sherry & Jack Delo, Co-Chairs
