Silver Crosses To Raise Funds |
DR Dinner and Auction Tickets Now On Sale |
Our Dominican Republic mission team has five silver and Larimar crosses to give away to donors to the 2019 mission trip fund. If you are not familiar with Larimar, it's a mineral found only in the Dominican Republic. We have 5 crosses - 3 with heart-shaped stones, 1 diamond shape and 1 square-shaped. They are 2" tall by 1" wide, and were made specifically for our team by a master jeweler in Santo Domingo. If you make a $100 donation or more to the Christ Episcopal Fund DR Mission Fund, we will give you the one of your choice - first come, first served. If they are not taken by May 3rd, they will be for sale at the DR Auction. To claim one of these crosses or for more information, contact Julia Ariail <juliacariail@gmail.com> or (229) 563-0074.
Tickets are now on sale in the church office and in the parish hall after the 10 a.m. Sunday service for our annual DR Dinner and Auction, the main fundraising event for our mission work in the Diocese of the Dominican Republic. This event will be held at 6:00 p.m. on May 3 at the Cotton Corner, 101 N. Ashley Street, downtown Valdosta. Our missioners will be in El Pedregal, our mission work site, from June 17-24.
