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.
St. Christopher Parish was established on March 31, 1954, and quickly developed into a diverse, joyful, and faith-filled community. Today, we have 3,325 registered families of various ethnicities. For the past 65 years, our parish has been on a daily journey of faith, hope, and love: faith in the eternal Word of God, born afresh each morning at our Eucharistic celebrations; and Shope of the sanctification afforded in the Sacraments; and love that binds us together in Christian charity as a family of God.
With acknowledgment of and appreciation for your lifelong commitment and unfailing support of St. Christopher through the years, I now write with immense joy and heartfelt gratitude in announcing the launch of our parish capital campaign in conjunction with the Archdiocese’s Called to Renew effort. This campaign will provide the much-needed funding for parishes throughout the Archdiocese and will greatly benefit St. Christopher.
To successfully reach our goal, we are asking each parish family to make a generous gift from the heart. Since I am asking you to make this sacrificial contribution, I, as your pastor and fellow parishioner, will also make a sacrificial pledge toward this campaign. Before you decide on the amount of your gift, please prayerfully consider the immensity of the love and generosity God has shown us and the importance of the mission He has entrusted upon us.
Thanking you in anticipation for your unfailing support.
Pledged over 5 years for the Called to Renew Campaign.

Parish Needs
Audio Visual System
The current audio system in the main church is outdated. Replacing the video screens and installing a new audio system will allow parishioners to hear the Word of God distinctly.
Bramble Hall Kitchen
Our beloved parish hall was built 60 years ago. Campaign funds will be used to remodel the kitchen in Bramble Hall. Renovations will allow us to better use this space to serve our community.
Interior Lighting
The church’s interior lighting needs to be restructured. Installing new hanging fixtures and energy-efficient LED lighting will make the interior brighter at a modest cost.
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.
