Our community is excited to participate alongside all parishes, missions and Catholic centers in the Archdiocese to strengthen and renew our Church for the future. Please continue reading to learn how this campaign will benefit us.
Archbishop Jose H. Gomez has launched an archdiocesan-wide capital campaign to bolster the mission of our local Church and assist the parishes and schools of the Archdiocese. The goal of Called to Renew is to raise $500 million, and every parish will play a part in helping to reach this goal.
Holy Innocents Parish’s contribution to this campaign will be to raise $415,000 over a period of five years. Half of that amount — $207,500 — will remain with our parish to be used for needs we identify. Details about how we plan to use our share of these campaign funds are on the following page.
You and I stand on the shoulders of veritable pioneers who established and built Holy Innocents nearly 100 years ago. (We will celebrate our centenary in December of 2023!) We are the beneficiaries of the prayers and hard work of the lay people, religious sisters, and priests who came before us. Now it is our turn to not only meet our present needs but to also leave a legacy for those who come after us.
Please kindly consider in prayer the Archbishop’s Called to Renew campaign in order to discern your role in renewing our parish and our Archdiocese.

Parish Needs
Meeting Space
Renovating our building on the corner of Willow and Pine will allow us to use this space more efficiently. The conversion will provide a conference room for parish groups and a classroom/library for our school.
School Security
Installing security cameras and additional lighting will enhance the safety of our school site for students and visitors.
School Exterior
Renovating the exterior of our school will protect it from the elements and beautify the building.
A Bold Plan of Renewal
We — the Catholic faithful — are the agents of renewal for Church and society. I am grateful for this opportunity to walk alongside clergy and parishioners in strengthening our parishes and ministries, the heart of our Archdiocese.
