Announcing the matchup for this year’s edition of Penny Wars: Graybeal vs. Graybeal! Becky Graybeal (Wesley’s Director of Music) and Brian Graybeal, Wesley’s Minister to Youth, will go head-to-head this year for a great cause. The jars will appear in the atrium this Sunday! Proceeds from this year’s Penny Wars will help defray the costs of relationship-building & faith-forming activities through this year’s “Year of the Table” program.
Penny Wars is a game of friendly sabotage through donations of coins and cash. Pennies are positive points, and all other coins and cash are negative points. (A quarter, for example, is -25 points, and a $5 bill is -500 points.) Put your pennies in the jar of the competitor you want to win the penny war, and all other donations in the jar of the competitor you want to sabotage. At the end, the competitor with the most points (not necessarily the most money!) will be declared the winner — and the other competitor will get a pie in the face!
The penny jars will be available on Sundays in October. We’ll announce the winner on Sunday November 6, and celebrate with the pie-in-the-face on Sunday November 13.
