Legacy Committee - The Legacy Committee is a gathering of parish members who have remembered IHM Church, School or other Catholic ministries in their wills. We meet with individuals and groups to share our stories and let others know the good outcomes that are available to us by making provisions for families, friends and our financial blessings through wills and other directives. We know that all adults, regardless of age, benefit from being aware of the opportunities for making these plans. Moreover, there is a place for everyone at the table of legacy donors. Join us in our important work. We welcome you.
Ministry Leader: Susan DePasquale, 678-469-9668 (stdepasquale@gmail.com)
Stewardship Commission - The Stewardship Commission is a consultative ministry that works with the Pastor to formulate strategies to assist in the development of members of the parish as Disciples of Jesus Christ. In addition, the Stewardship Commission supports the work of the Living Your Strengths Ministry and Legacy Committee.
