Dear Members of the Parish,

Thank you for your generous response to our recent stewardship initiative.

From mid-November until the end of December, our parish embarked on a program to help build for our future. All members of the parish were asked to consider their financial contributions to Christ Church Deer Park, and to respond faithfully and generously. The response was simply overwhelming!

We are most grateful to those who increased their pledges for 2012, as well as those who made commitments for the first time. We also wish to recognize those who were unable to make financial pledges, or increase their donation at this time, yet who give generously of their time and talents within our parish community.

We wish to offer special thanks to the members of the Stewardship Committee:

Innes van Nostrand (Chair), Fraser Baillie, Samantha Caravan, James Cowan, Mark Groesbeck, Bob Hutchison, Barbara Johnston, George Lewis, David Moore, Rob Morrow, Cathy Thomas, Tony van Straubenzee.

If you have not yet had the opportunity to make your commitment for 2012, there is still time. Please pick up the stewardship material at the back of the church, the bell tower entrance, or the atrium. Thank you for supporting the vital work of our parish.

-- The Rector & Churchwardens
