Parish Needs

Interior Restoration and Renovation

Our beloved Church, built in 1964 and renovated in 2000, has been the center of our spiritual life. With over 20 years of use, the interior of the Church is due for much-needed restoration and renovation. With the proceeds of this campaign, we will use funds for the following:

  • Refurbish and refinish our church pews during an 8-week summer project
  • Clean and restore pew cushions
  • Fix broken kneelers and chairs
  • Repaint the interior to brighten the walls

Air Conditioning and Heating Systems

Depending on the time of the year, the temperature in our Church can get uncomfortable. Our air conditioning and heating units were installed over 20 years ago, and over time, they have been repaired and serviced countless times. We plan to fix and, if necessary, replace units that no longer function properly to moderate the temperature in Church and make our worship experience more pleasant.

Enhanced Sound & Audio-Visual System

We celebrate the Liturgy of the Word and the Liturgy of the Eucharist during Mass. Sometimes it is difficult to hear or see parts of the Mass with our current sound system. With the proceeds of this campaign, we will use funds for the following:

  • Install a new AV system that will enhance our current sound system
  • Improve assisted listening with an active loop hearing system for hearing aid wearers
  • Provide us with more accessible and better live-streaming capabilities
  • Replace the 1994 antiquated sound system in the Parish Hall

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.
