Christmas service booklet dedications

posted in: Christmas | 0

Celebrate someone special in your life with a memorial or honorary dedication in the Christmas service booklet.  Everyone is invited. “Honorary” gifts are often given to show appreciation for someone’s kindness or to recognize their impact on your life, or to mark an anniversary or other special event. “In Memory” gifts are a special way to memorialize someone special who has passed away. A donation with your dedication turns your expression of love into a sign of hope. All names received for dedications will be published in the Christmas and Christmas Eve booklets, and all donations received will be used to support St. Thomas’s mission of following Jesus into loving, liberating and life-giving relationships with God, with each other and with the world.

Please use the dedication form or one available in the office and in the lobby. Please have everything turned in by the end of next week – December 12, 2021.  You can mail, email, or drop your dedication in the mailbox on the office door, or use the Giving form.  The suggested donation amount is $25, however, there is no required minimum or limit. The greening of the church building will again be modest this year; in this season, our priorities are staying safe and helping our neighbors. So, the donations collected will go towards those priorities.

Please let me know if you have any questions. This has been a year when we have experienced losses, and also a year when we have experienced new joys.  This is a nice opportunity to reflect and share those significant events and special individuals with our faith family.

Kind regards,
