Thanks from Guatemala Project ~ and a reminder it’s not all up
to us. Thanks to those of you who are contributing to the Project’s “April Madness” fund campaign, and also to those who attended or helped at out 15-year celebration (especially to Robin D., Joyce T. and Steve C. for service “above and beyond”). PLEASE don’t think we are asking parishioners alone to raise $12,000 for the project. The appeal is going out widely beyond the church, and two of the initial larger donations were from the general community (totaling $700). Your generosity forms the donation base and inspires others, but all of us have many ways to share our treasure, and we simply hope you will pass a small part to the Guatemala Project. Ideally, we’d like to receive $2 each from 6,000 people, but since that’s not possible, we depend upon a few major donors and many “any amount” champions. Again, humble thanks. Ila
