St. Paul s Anglican Church P.O. Box 87 Trinity, NL A0C 2S0 Dear Parishioners and Friends, We are seeking your help. We are desperately trying to raise $10,000 to match approved funding so that we can call tenders to repair the roof of the church and paint the exterior. It is essential that we stop the leaks as soon as possible to keep more damage from occurring. Of course, once we have contractors on site for this, it makes fiscal sense to have the exterior painting done at the same time. We already have $10,000. An additional $8,000 has been committed provided we can raise another $10,000. All donors will be issued an income tax receipt. A list of donors will be posted in the back of the church. If you wish your donation to be in memory of loved ones, please list the names on the form. A Donation for Church Repairs 2 Name: Address: In Memory Of: Soup & Sandwich Sale Wednesday, August 26th Amount: Please make cheques payable to St. Paul s Anglican Church. Thank you. All proceeds go towards a new roof and the exterior painting of St. Paul s Anglican Church, Trinity Come along to the Parish Hall from 11-2 and enjoy lunch with a friend! Soup, sandwich, a piece of pie, & tea/coffee $10 per person Organized by St. Paul s A.C.W.
