Holy Smoking BBQ A Success
The initial goal was for the deacon community to raise $3000 for Church of the Common Ground, with a stretch goal of $5000. All figures are not in yet, but as of February 10th, net proceeds from the sale of over 330 pork butts was over $8500, with a strong possibility that $9000 (3X the original goal) will be raised. St. Michael's parishioners bought 6 pork butts and donated an additional $515. THANK YOU!
