Community Steward's Day is March 19

On Sunday, March 19, at 10:00 am, the Stewards Ministry at Memorial AME Zion Church will host Community Stewards Day during their worship service. On this day, dedicated service organizations and community leaders will join the members of Memorial in prayer for our community, our country and the renewed strength of all of God’s people working towards change in their respective fields.

Catholic Family Center has been designated as the recipient of this 2017 Community Stewards Day award for our work with refugees and immigrants. In addition to being a special recipient of prayer, blessing and thanks for the work our staff and volunteers do every day, CFC will also be the recipient of a special love offering that will be raised among all guests attending.

We invite you to join us for this special, honoring event as part of our Centennial Celebration of 100 Years of service together in our community!

Thank you for joining us this year as we Celebrate together.

Kind regards,

Marlene Bessette

President & CEO
