Anyone that is interested in one of these meeting ideas or getting involved with a project please let me know. (I'll be at Parish Cofffee after Masses or email me) We are counting on the parish to support us in these endeavors to be successful.
It's true that the more you do for others the better you will feel.
Here we go.
All of these projects are important to me but the 2 most important ones I'd like to focus on are:
- To see a St. Basil's parishioner be the next owner of the 2012 Habitat for Humanity home
- Letters and small gifts to servicemen and women in Afghanistan...let them know how much you appreciate there service to our country...I have approached "Starbucks" about joining in their venture to send Starbucks individual instant coffee packets to Afghanistan- their project is going very well...I'll let you know how it goes...I am also trying to get a representative from the Armouries 56th Regiment to speak at a meeting and help with mailings
OTHERS PROJECTS:
-School Snack Program...2 times a week prepare and serve snacks at an approved school
-Prayer Blankets...knit or chrochet blankets for the sick in the parish whose families are requesting prayers or anyone you may know that would benefit from receiving one
-Car Wash for Charity ..I think this could be a fun project for young adults and profitable
-Scrapbooking...current events and past...bring in your pictures of any parish events (FamJam, Spring Fling etc)
MEETING IDEAS:
-Fashion Show..geared mostly to young adults
-Pizza Night for Young Adults...make your pizas in the hall kitchen
-Vet Night..bring your pets and ask questions...maybe even have your pet vaccinated
-Make-Over Night...learn about make-up applications or have a make-over
-Bookclub...get together and discuss books or have a list of suggested reading material
-Meeting geared to the younger girls under 16...a fun night for them (Wii tournament)
