So often in our busy lives, our focus is limited to just the people and organizations we see on a daily basis. But every now and then, it's inspiring and gratifying to take a look up and out to see that we are a part of something BIGGER than ourselves.
As Christians, we know that we are each members of the Body of Christ called to live as disciples of Jesus. As a member of Our Lady of Las Vegas Parish community, you are spiritually connected to every Catholic disciple and organization serving our nation and the world. Just pause to think about all of the good and holy work that is happening RIGHT NOW through our beloved Church...
We invite you join us in #iGiveCatholic on Giving Tuesday as an opportunity to celebrate our Catholic connection while supporting the hardworking ministries doing the Lord's work each day.
And we won't be alone. #iGiveCatholic is the U.S. Catholic Church's annual giving day, so we'll be participating along with thousands of other Catholic churches, schools and ministries across the country -- all celebrating the impact of Catholic organizations serving our diverse communities!
Our Lady of Las Vegas Parish is participating in the #iGiveCatholic campaign this year in order to help us raise funds for repairing and resurfacing our school and parish parking lots. Due to constant use, the main parking lot and the Bevan Hall lot have deteriorated. Both the school and the church use these lots every day, and we want to ensure a safe environment for everyone. The estimated cost of this project will be at least $50,000. Because of the size and age of all our buildings and our campus, there are always costly maintenance issues that need attention. Our hope is that the #iGiveCatholic campaign in conjunction with Giving Tuesday on November 28, will help us secure funds we will need for this particular project.
Advanced Giving is going on now, visit #iGiveCatholic ~ Our Lady of Las Vegas Parish through Giving Tuesday on November 28 to make a donation to OLLV or any of the participating parishes, schools, & ministries you support. All online giving will end at 11:59PM on November 28, so please donate before then!
If you prefer to make your gift by check or cash, we'll be happy to accept it by mail or in person. We will add it to our #iGiveCatholic totals manually so your gift still counts towards our goal!
Thank you in advance for your consideration and support of Our Lady of Las Vegas School Parish or any organization, we are grateful and blessed that you are part of our School and Parish Community.
Blessings,
Fr. Gerry Grupczynski
Pastor
Our Lady of Las Vegas Parish
