Dear friends,
The season of Advent is a time of hopeful expectation and prayerful reflection. At Bridgefolk, we share in this spirit of hope for what is to come, as well as gratitude for what has been. The past year has brought many blessings to the Bridgefolk movement: A successful conference at MCC Welcoming Place challenged and enriched us. New friends have broadened our circle. Developments in ecumenical dialogue have given us cause for hope and renewed opportunities for progress. We have much cause for praise and celebration.
At the same time, we are aware that we rely on the support of committed friends of Bridgefolk to continue to pursue the vision set before us. In the coming year, we hope to devote resources to adjusting our administrative structure, developing our annual conference and encouraging participation in local and broader Bridgefolk activities. To meet our aspirations, we will rely on your support.
We invite you to take a moment during this busy time to consider making a financial contribution to the ongoing work of Bridgefolk. Your contribution will help ensure that the work of Bridgefolk moves forward in the coming year.
