Parish Feast Day
- Soni asked if we have to prepare prizes if we choose games stall. Keenan replied that it depends on what items will be sponsored for the fun fair. He asked the team to prepare prizes as a precaution.
- Each ministry is asked the stall they will be setting up. Emmaus chose games stall but told Keenan that there is a possibility that we will be helping out the adult charismatic group.
- Each ministry has to count the number of regular attendee in their group. Keenan says that it is compulsory for each regular attendee to take 5 funfair coupons ($50) to sell. Unsold tickets will be absorbed by the member.
- parish feast day stall will be from 7am - 3pm, might need to setup the stall 1 day before (keenan will update when it's closer to the d day)
