===== Christmas Appeal
Christmas Giving Message
As we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, let us remember the angel’s joyful proclamation:
“But the angel said to them, ‘Do not be afraid.
I bring you good news that will cause great
joy for all the people. Today in the town of
David a Savior has been born to you; he is the
Messiah, the Lord.'” (Luke 2:10-11)
I bring you good news that will cause great
joy for all the people. Today in the town of
David a Savior has been born to you; he is the
Messiah, the Lord.'” (Luke 2:10-11)
This season, I invite you to join us in a special Christmas Appeal to support Transfiguration Parish and our mission of faith, service, and community. Your contributions make it possible to sustain our ministries, care for our sacred spaces, and provide outreach to those in need.
Here are two meaningful ways you can help this Season:
1) Make a Special Christmas Offering
Your financial gift helps ensure that we can continue providing spiritual nourishment and outreach to our community. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a lasting impact. For online gifting, visit
2) Share Your Time and Talents
If you’re interested in making a meaningful impact, we would greatly appreciate your support with parish events, ministries, or outreach programs. Visit our website to discover volunteer opportunities. Here is our Ministry Listing Page:
