Hello brothers and sisters,
It's February already. It means in less than two weeks it's our Valentines Fundraiser Party already. Anyway, I would just like to stress really the benefits of having a party such as this.2. It's a Fundraiser
Not only we will actually spend lesser with the entertainment value that our event will have, proceeds from this party will go to our YFL (and also to our KFL). To simply put it, you are already having a date with your loved one, you will be having a great time dancing and at the same time you are also helping your child and his/her ministry. For the YFL, lessen their conference fees this year and for the KFL, more funds for their camps. It's actually a win-win-win thing.
3. It's Fellowship time
Per our "Growing in the Holy Spirit" CLS talk, of the 5 spokes that we need to grow personally and communally, surprisingly Fellowship is the one that is not so much taken advantage of. Prayer, we always do this privately and in our gatherings. Study, we get this in our household and assemblies. Service, we have our CLS and rallies. Sacraments, we get this in our Parish. But Fellowship, things we do with our other friends, officemates and relatives, we don't do so much with our brothers and sisters in the community. This is a perfect time to just have pure fun with them also.
4. It's an Evangelization opportunity.
Since we are inviting people that are not part or members of our community. This is the best time and place to invite for a CLS. Not to preach but to show them hey we know how to have fun also. When their guards are down since they are in a party or celebration mode, an invitation for a future CLS is best received by them. Hence, we will have more prospects for evangelization. In fact this is really a creative way of bringing them closer to us and hopefully join our community eventually.
So there you go brothers and sisters, with the benefits mentioned above: we save, we help fund, we have fun and we can help spiritually.
Why not go??
Let's all support our Valentines Fundraiser!!
Advanced Happy Valentines!!
God bless,
bBarber
