On Friday 27th April we have began to make arrangements for a Spring Fundraiser at The Workshops as part of our fundraising for Atlanta! As the date comes ever more closer we will be looking for donations for stalls and raffles to help get the fundraiser up and running. If you think you can help please get in touch on 01463 239615.
Also, Catherine Logan who is Chair of the Woman's Guild in the Inverness and Nairn area, has sent out some letters to ask people to join a 'Friend's of L'Arche' group which will be a great boost for the community too. However, if you have not recieved a letter and wish to get involved please do get in contact with Anne Shaw on the above telephone number for more information.
As with any big project - like Atlanta - we will be hoping to fundraise approximately £2000 in order to cover flights and other costs. With such a huge amount we realise this will be a massive challenge and we hope that we can make use of any donations no matter how big or small. In the office, work has began on small fundraising boxes which we hope to distribute to the churches which are friends of the community. If you would like to suggest any other possible ways to fundraise please contact Amy at reception@larcheinverness.com. - Any comments appreciated!
Hello, I meant to get in touch about the "Friend's of L'Arche" letter I got. I am fairly busy over summer, but if someone could let me know what it involves perhaps I could be of service. Hope you are all doing well as a community and hope to make it into Inverness more once I finally get my driving test sorted out - so perhaps I can pop around to see people or meet in town. L'arche is never far from my heart and mind, as it has truly been a major part of my journey with God and into a more practical application of the gospels. My prayers are with you all. God bless. :)
ReplyDeletep.s. Holly and Tracey I hope the funding and trip go very well. God bless you both. Shalom. :) x
