The parish, in early 2006, embarked on a Capital Campaign, based on
stewardship, to raise 1.5 million dollars over a three year period.
There was and is a need to upgrade existing facilities to meet the
demands of the spiritual and physical growth of our faith community.
The Parish Hall is over 30 years old and was in need of the
renovations that were completed this past fall. The Early Childhood
Center (EEC) needs a permanent facility and many parish ministries can
utilize the space that is now occupied by the parish pre-school.
Renovations to the church are also required, new lighting for example.
The time had arrived when the parish was asked to make the leap of
faith and invest in the future of our parish. The initial response is
very heartening and pledges are coming in daily. Faith promise cards
(pledge cards) are available in the church pews and at the rectory for
anyone that now wishes, in the spirit of stewardship, to invest in the
future of our parish.
