Chalice Lighters Program
April 27, 2009
This year, Bell Street Chapel is asking for support from the Ballou Channing District Chalice Lighters program in order to raise funds for a wheelchair stair lift to improve our accessibility for the handicapped.
The purpose of the Ballou Channing District (BCD) Chalice Lighters program is to raise money for grants to assist congregations in developing and implementing plans to promote growth and membership retention. Projects might include support of professional ministerial or religious education staffing, renovation or expansion of facilities or funding of special programs for start-up and membership growth activities.
The greater Bell Street’s participation in the Chalice Lighters program, the more likely it will be that Bell Street receives a grant. Participation in the Chalice Lighters program will not only help Bell Street Chapel to purchase a stair lift, but will also help other Ballou Channing congregations grow in important ways. If you would like to become a BCD Chalice Lighter, or would like more information, please feel free to call me at (401) 569-8843, e-mail me at dgreco2760@yahoo.com, or track me down during coffee hour.
