CATHEDRAL NOTES

  

BISHOP'S DOLLARS  

Envelopes for donations to the Bishop's Discretionary Fund are available on the Ministry table in the Chapter House vestibule, or checks may be placed in the alms basin marked "Bishop's Discretionary Fund." The envelopes say, "When the Bishop comes, he meets parishioners, wardens, vestry, clergy, and their families. He listens, pastors, helps plan, teaches, baptizes, preaches, confirms, celebrates Eucharist, shares our life. And we talk, listen, share plan, celebrate, worship, offer. We also make a financial/money offering to the Bishop's Discretionary Fund, which he uses for unexpected needs and opportunities, clergy family crises, hopes and dreams he has for people. In thanksgiving to God, then, here is my gift to my Bishop."
