A CALL TO ACTION Just like any dwelling, our spiritual home requires ongoing upkeep. It is once again time to undertake several major projects: The 2022 Pastoral Plan initiatives will require funding to enhance liturgy experience, increase parishioner engagement and encourage faith sharing The entire church roof is overdue for replacement The church sound system, state-of-the-art in 2012, needs to be replaced (technology has greatly advanced in the last ten years)
STRATEGIC SPENDING Thanks to a strong response to the 2007 Legacy Fund capital campaign, we have been able to address urgent repairs and upgrades to the church, parish center, school and convent. Church projects included replacing more than 600 slate roof tiles, updating the interior lighting and installing a new sound system. Major improvements to the school included adding air conditioning, resurfacing the play area and constructing a science lab and multimedia center. Funds were also used to repaint the gym following last year’s flood.
With five buildings, six acres and a staff of 53, our community should always be prepared for ongoing maintenance
