Rejoicing Partners gets its name from the book of Acts, which tells the story of St. Philip the Deacon and the Ethiopian. Acts 8:39 reads: “When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord suddenly took Philip away, and the eunuch did not see him again, but went on his way rejoicing.”

Members of Rejoicing Partners are recognized by St. Philip the Deacon both to thank them for their generosity, and to encourage others to consider leaving a legacy gift to the Foundation or Church. Donors may also choose to remain anonymous if they desire.
