Chalice Lighter Program
A Chalice Lighter is an individual or family that pledges to make a contribution to a congregation when a call comes to “light a chalice” in the district.
Each year the St. Lawrence District awards two Chalice Lighter grants, which might help a new congregation get started or an existing one get a new minister; it might support moving into a new building or renovating an existing space; it could be used to fund improvements in important programming such as religious education. To finance these grants, the district puts out a call to all Chalice Lighters, who have pledged to respond to twice-a-year calls with donations of $20 or more.
