Honoring a Loved OneMEMORIAL GIFTS
To provide permanent recognition for donors to our Church Vestibule Project Campaign, a series of specific Memorial Gifts or Naming Opportunities are available. A Memorial Gift Opportunity is a specific item or area possessing religious, devotional, or functional significance, which serves to observe a donor’s special intention. Donors have an opportunity to memorialize or commemorate specific items and areas within the Church or on our grounds.
Do the suggested gift amounts for Memorial Gift Opportunities represent their actual cost?
No. The suggested amount of a memorial or naming permits Saint Simon Stock Parish to raise funds for the Church Vestibule Project. The memorials listed do not represent the actual cost of the items. The suggested donation amount for each naming opportunity relates solely to the religious values in our church traditions.
How does a donor reserve a Memorial Gift?
Memorials for specific items or areas are listed. If you so desire, you can simply select a memorial item that corresponds with your donation or the pledge amount you wish to donate. Memorials are reserved on a first come, first served basis. They are designated only once. Once a memorial has been reserved, it is no longer available.
The way to reserve a memorial is to do the following:
- Select an item from the “Memorial Gift/Naming Opportunities” list.
- Reserve the Memorial by calling the Parish Office at: (856) 767-2563.
- Fill out the pledge envelope and mail it to the Parish Office or drop it in the collection basket at Mass.
