| Deborah Monski Vacation Bible School Fund |
| As many of you know Deborah Monski, one of our Vacation Bible School volunteers and the mother of two small children, passed away suddenly this past winter. The VBS committee would like to develop a VBS scholarship fund in Deborah’s memory. This fund would be used to allow those parents who can not afford to pay the fee to still send their children to Vacation Bible School. We need help in two ways: First, if you are able to add a few dollars to your payment for VBS this year, that will allow us to accumulate the funds needed. The fee charged allows us to cover most of our expenses, but it does not afford us the cushion we need to accommodate children who can not pay. Second, we need to identify those who are in need of these scholarships. Please pass along this information to that neighbor or relative who is out of work or has minimal means to afford VBS. If you are the one in need, please contact me or indicate it on your registration form. God bless, Karen Conroy and the St. James Vacation Bible School Committee (412)741-6766 extension. 503 or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
