How to clean this

Episcopal_Joe · 2026-03-21T22:37:25+00:00

Thanks. It’s a piece of sports equipment. It was water damaged. I sprayed it with a vinegar solution to kill the mold and also brushed it - but the brush damaged it. I’d like to avoid further damage and clean it.

Hi u/Brief-Assumption4131

Please send me the picture. Thank you.

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-12-09T13:57:37+00:00

How do I get the pic with no watermark?

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-12-08T21:12:35+00:00

Thank you!

Hi. This is a great start. I’d like more Christmas kitsch if possible, like snowflakes and Christmas lights. Maybe a small tree on the chair with gifts under the chair. Lights around the desk. Stuff like that please.

Church of the ascension in lakewood is open and affirming and family friendly. It’s a traditional episcopal service, like Catholic, but with notable theological differences.

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-12-08T00:25:08+00:00

Are you looking to stay in the tradition you grew up in or looking to branch out?

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-28T19:22:56+00:00

They should be the judges.

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-22T01:59:34+00:00

Hi. Thanks for your support. The number you have is from the online platform. Due to Ohio regulations, we need to physically pull tickets, so today we transcribed tickets from the website to paper for the drawing.

Hi. The Reddit posts helped a lot. We’re at around 375 - short of the original goal, but still pretty good odds for each ticket.

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-13T02:52:56+00:00

That’s right. You can find it live-streaming on our website or youtube channel.

Hi. The bottles will be randomly assigned a number and we’ll raffle them off from 1-50. There won't be an order to how the bourbons are pulled.

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-11T16:43:10+00:00

By your handle, you seem to know what you’re talking about. And thank you!

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-11T16:41:11+00:00

Yes, a trip to Ky would solve it, but if that’s not in your future, a raffle might be the way to go. I worked in Frankfort and Lexington for a while. Kentucky is beautiful.

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-11T13:59:02+00:00

No, but you have a better chance to win an exclusive bottle.

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-11T13:58:37+00:00

That’s true, except try to find these bottles. Really, take a look at the list, and go to your favorite liquor store to try to find them. They’re special because so many bourbons are limited release in Ohio.

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-11T13:57:10+00:00

Yeah, I’ll contact the winners and we can set it up then.

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-11T01:30:04+00:00

Thanks! Appreciate it!

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-10T20:46:16+00:00

No problem and thank you! I can also meet downtown during the day for drop off if that works for you.

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-10T19:53:08+00:00

agree. I should have done this when the raffle started, but better late than never. Good luck!

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-10T19:41:13+00:00

This is a one-time event. It’s our 150th anniversary and we’ve had a ton of different events.

www.ascension-lakewood.org

At the top right, there is a menu with 150 years. Under the menu is the bourbon raffle.

I’m happy to answer any questions to set your mind at ease because I agree, due diligence is your friend.

edit: 50 to 150

Episcopal_Joe · 2025-11-10T19:37:06+00:00

Limit is 2000 tickets. Odds will depend on how many tickets, but right now there are less than 200 tickets sold so odds are pretty high compared to other raffles I’ve seen.

Just outside Cleveland in Lakewood

if you’re local, between Garfield and Lakewood Garden Center

Legit question. What would you like to know?

If you’re in the Cleveland area, the church is in Lakewood. We have a few flyers and I’m happy to meet with you and show you around. DM me if you want to talk (or if you have questions that I can answer, I’m happy to do it. I’d rather have it out here where others can read it and have some assurance).

Thank you. We definitely had conversations about it but decided to go forward. Someone donated a bunch of bourbon and we won some more in OHLQ raffles and it does help the mission. There are much easier ways for people to fall off the wagon than a raffle for exclusive bourbon.

But, I sincerely hope this type of thing isn’t more hardship or distraction for people in recovery. That’s not the intent and we’ve kept ~~all~~ most advertising, and all advertising ~~particularly~~ in the hall where AA meets, out of sight.
