Town Hall Summary
Town Hall Summary
Our Town Hall Meeting was held on Saturday, March 5th . The agenda focused on the efforts of parishioners and the St. George Church Preservation Society to keep a Catholic presence in Allentown. After introductions of the board of directors and active volunteers, those attending the meeting were updated on the progress and accomplishments that have been made over the past six months. There was an update of the status of the Vatican appeal process to reopen the church. A question and answer session followed. We would like to thank all of those who attended and took the time to sign mandates, submit pledge forms and made generous donations. A special thank you goes out to the Hilltop United Methodist Church for their hospitality in providing the meeting space. We also acknowledge the congregation of the Hilltop Church for their commitment to the Allentown community. After the devastating fire that almost destroyed their church, they rebuilt and kept their presence in the neighborhood. Also, thanks to Barry Funeral Home for providing overflow parking. Be sure to join the St. George Church Preservation Society GROUP on Facebook to find out about upcoming events and to take part in the discussions about "Reopening & Restoring" the former St. George Church! |
