PARISH FAMILY
The Bottle Game was a HUGE Success last year!! So, we are planning it again this year! It’s not too early to start this year with planning for the Picnic… “the Bottle Game” is back. We are asking all to bring a “bottle
of…?” (examples; shampoo, wine, ketchup, mustard, pickles, lotion, dishwashing liquid, laundry detergent, syrup, 2 liter soda, honey, jelly, vanilla, cooking oil, etc.) that we will use for this fundraiser. The way this will work is, we will sell the same number of “chances” that we have for the number of “bottles” that we receive, the tickets will be numbered, the bottles will be numbered, each ticket will cost $3 to purchase, so you can see that this will be a good fundraiser for the
church, just think you might end up with a bottle of …….!
We would ask that you please make sure when you are making your purchase for these items to please check the expiration date on any perishable food items.

We will put 3 boxes/containers in the back of church, not in the vestibule under the pew in front of the cry room for all to place their bottles in. It’s not too early to start collecting, so bring your bottles.

Thank you all for your support of our Parish!
