St. Vincent De Paul Catholic Church

Del Pastor

Dear Friends in Christ,

In 1923, St. Vincent de Paul Parish was established and given to the Vincentian priests and brothers, who have since cared for the buildings and the parishioners following the charism of our founder, St. Vincent de Paul: to follow Jesus Christ, evangelizer of the poor. Throughout these many years, our parish has been home to many different peoples, from western Europeans to Central Americans. For all this time, our church and school have served us well. However, the time has come to repair and improve our buildings so they better serve everyone.

Today, we are happy to announce the Called to Renew archdiocesan capital campaign, which will allow us to make the necessary repairs and improvements that our parish needs to better serve you.

The goal for our parish is $530,000, of which 50 percent will be used to address the needs outlined on the next page. That means we get to keep $265,000 to address our own needs. We will also retain 100 percent of the funds we collect over our goal, which is an amazing opportunity for our parish.

To reach our goal, we are hoping every family will make a gift from their heart. We know that making a pledge now, in a time of financial insecurity, is challenging. In light of that, we are asking you to make a sacrificial pledge. Before making your pledge, please take some time in prayer to reflect on all of the gifts God has given you and consider how you can participate in St. Vincent’s ministries.

Thank you in advance for your pledge.

Peace in Christ,

Fr. David Nations
