Thank you to so many people who made last week's Celebration Sunday a success!
A Big Thank You to Yasser Youssef, owner of Fig Deli, 1551 Cedar Hill Cross Rd. who cooked and delivered our Celebration Sunday lunch. He provided a delicious meal for us and gave a great deal costwise! Please support Yasser and the Fig Deli in return for his neighbourly support of St. Luke’s.
Special Thanks to the Setup and Kitchen Crew for the Celebration Sunday Lunch: 1st Cedar Hill Scouts, Alan and Genessa; Rovers, Jesse and Daniel Poilievre, and their leader, Jason Poilievre; as well as Jesse Charmley and Aanika White. They did the setup, serving, and cleanup so that the rest of us could relax and really celebrate without having to work in the kitchen.
Our Sincere Thank You from the Stewardship Team to Everyone Came Out for the Celebration Sunday Service and Lunch – It was great to have the church so full! We are also very thankful for all the commitments that people made regarding their offerings for 2025.
Givings Cards – Some extra copies of the Estimate of Givings Cards handed out last Sunday are on the table at the back of the church. If you didn’t fill one out last week, we would be very appreciative if you could fill out a card this week. If you wish to change the amount noted last week, please fill out another card and put the word Revised on it so that we know that this card replaces the one you filled out last week.
Pre-Authorized Remittance Program (PAR) – A number of people noted on their givings cards that they would like to increase their PAR or start using PAR. To make a change or start using PAR, please send an e-mail to St. Luke’s Givings e-mail (givings@stlukecedarhill.ca) and include the following information as noted. To make a change to PAR, include your envelope #, the date you would like the change to happen (eg December 1, 2024 or January 1, 2025, etc.), and the amount of the change. The PAR comes out of one’s account on the 20th of the month but changes have to be sent in prior to the 10th of the month. To start using PAR, send an e-mail to St. Luke’s Givings e-mail (givings@stlukecedarhill.ca) and a form to enrol will be sent to you. The Treasurer will follow up with everyone who indicated that they would like to change their PAR amount or start PAR in case they have any questions.
