It is time for the Christ Church July RaiseRight Order!

Last year ShopWithScrip rebranded itself as RaiseRight - the same name as the app that some of you have been using. Their new website is

https://www.raiseright.com/shop.

Paul Ambos, will be placing a new card order on the morning of Monday, July 10. Please place your orders accordingly. If you plan to mail him an order with a check, please advise him by email when you mail it of what your order is so that he can place it on time despite possible Post Office delays. Or, if you place your own order directly on the RaiseRight website or app, he will be able to see it there when he orders the monthly batch.
