Beginning March 1, we will no longer be accepting birthday offerings during the birthday and anniversary prayers.
We are trying to be welcoming to newcomers who are not familiar with our traditions and to encourage all to come forward for a birthday blessing without feeling awkward about giving a special offering at that time.
If you wish to make a special offering for your birthday, please make clear (on the memo line of a check, or on the outside of an envelope) that it is a birthday offering, and put it in the regular collection plate or bring it to the office. The birthday offerings go to support the work of Our Little Roses in Honduras.
