Fr. John is leading the way in a parish walkathon fundraiser – and he’s calling you to join in the fun. Whether you have a quick step or are more casually inclined, we hope to see you there.
How Does It Work?
- The full Walk is a distance of 2.5km
- There will also be a shorter, modified option for those who need to watch their step or have small children with them.
- Register for the Walk-a-thon and pick up a pledge sheet.
- Ask friends, family and co-workers to sponsor you for the walk. People can choose to sponsor you by amount walked (e.g. $5 for every 0.5km walked) or by a single amount for your participation in the Walk.
- Following the Walk, you collect your pledges and bring them into the Parish Office within a week of the Walk. (If people wish to give you their pledges upfront, before the walk, you can collect them and bring them into the parish on August 16).
- Any Pledge over $25 is eligible for a tax receipt from the church.
How Do I Register?
Fill out the form below and we will send you a pledge form.
You can also stop by the Parish Office to register in person. Don’t forget to pick up your pledge sheet when you do.
Start collecting pledges early and let people know that any pledge of $25 or more is eligible for a tax receipt from the church.
What If I Can't Join the Walk, But Want to Help?
If you unable to join us for the Walk, but would like to sponsor Fr. John, you can sign his pledge sheet when you see him. Or, if you have friends or family joining the Walk, you can choose to sponsor them. All proceeds of the fundraising Walk will go to Divine Mercy Parish.
It promises to be a fun day with prizes for those gathering the most pledges and a thank you BBQ at the end of the Walk.
So, call up your friends and family,
sign up your pledges,
do up your shoelaces
and come out to walk for Divine Mercy!
