Dear Parishioners,

I wanted to update you with our campaign to fix up some of our properties.  First, I’m very grateful for all of you who have contributed—great and small—thank you.  If you made a pledge, please keep at it as we are ready to begin some of our projects.

As with any campaign, we do what we can with what we raise, and will do what we can with future funds.  We have already spent $19,000.00 on our new air condition unit for the church.  It is a bit loud, so we are working on some options to quiet it down—so, please bear with me on that front.

We have, combined the monies raised at the Silent Auction, $125,000. in actual cash.  There is still about $80,000 outstanding in pledges.  That being said, we will begin the following projects to be completed throughout the summer:

—School roof replaced

—School windows replaced

—School doors replaced

—Church doors replaced

—New siding on rectory

—New windows on rectory

—New roof on office part of rectory

—Remodel rectory bathrooms

All of these projects will exhaust all our cash on hand raised so far from the campaign and silent auction.  So, please continue with the pledges for future projects.

I want to thank you for your generous support with this campaign and also your weekly giving.  May God reward you for your charity.  Your are in my prayers! 

Yours in Christ,

Msgr. Heinz

Pastor
