IN MEMORY OF (IMO) CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE REBUILDING FUND:

GUEST BOOK: If you are visiting our church, please accept our warmest welcome! There is a beautiful Polish saying, “Gość w dom, Bóg w dom” (With a guest, God enters the house). Please sign our guest book on the back table. If you would like a tour of the church, please call 902-563-1226.

FUND-RAISING FOR THE COMPLETION OF CONSTRUCTION (KITCHEN): The final major phase of rebuilding is the kitchen. To help with the fund-raising and future programming for the kitchen (eg. cooking classes, community meals), the Rada initiated the incorporation of a non-profit society, the Whitney Pier Polish Kitchen Society, which will bring together parishioners and non-parishioners interested in promoting the kitchen and food garden. If you would like to be involved in any way, please speak with any member of the Rada. Thanks so much, everyone, for all your support and generosity during all the previous phases of the rebuilding … and for spreading the word!

SEEKING INFORMATION ABOUT POLISH CHILDREN’S TOYS: The Library Committee (which will lead on developing the library and children’s play area) held its first meeting. New members welcome. Jerry Pocius will chair the committee. One of the committee members, Kristen Fagan-Steele, would like to interview any parishioners about traditional toys they might have had as children, or toys from Poland. The idea is that the future items in the library and play area will be very carefully selected – interesting, unique, usable.

IN MEMORIAM / BUILDING FUND ENVELOPES / REBUILDING FUND ENVELOPES are at the back of the church. Many thanks for your support.
