A Prayer for Our Capital Campaign
Loving Father,
our grateful hearts are filled with joy
as we remember your blessings.
We look forward in faith,
trusting your providence to guide us
by the light of the Holy Spirit.
Make us generous in your service
and direct our present efforts to build a parish life center
where your family of faith
may continue to flourish for generations to come.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

Moving Towards Our Stretch Goal: $5 Million
This past week we received approximately $25,000 more in pledges towards our stretch goal of $5 million!
Thank you for your continued prayers and generosity!
Please consider praying a novena with your family to the Infant Jesus of Prague for the success of this project. We have entrusted this effort to His special care!
Important spiritual lessons from the Capital Campaign
Our financial sacrifices allow us to grow spiritually as we learn three important lessons:
1) detachment from material goods,
2) how to stretch our hearts to be generous, and
3) how to prioritize the mission of the Church over our own desires.
We can build not just a new facility but a new heart that is more Christ-like! These are lessons we all need to learn in order to be disciples of the Lord Jesus.
If not through this process, what’s your plan for learning???
What’s next?
We are counting on the support of those parishioners who have not yet returned a pledge card to help make this beautiful dream for our future come true! This is the time for all members to show gratitude for the blessings we receive here at Holy Family. Your commitment shows that this is not just a service center where we receive sacraments when we want but truly our spiritual family where we all share responsibility for the needs of our community.
Why should people continue to make pledges?
The extent of what we build will depend on the generosity of those who have not yet finished discerning their commitment.
Examples of what still depends on how much additional funding we receive:- exact number of meeting rooms and classrooms (currently two, hoping for four or more!)
- dedicated activity space for our youth group and young adults
- finishing touches such as bleachers for the gym, curtain for the stage, A/V equipment, etc.
- convent renovation for the Handmaids of the Heart of Jesus who begin serving here in 2020
- HVAC improvements in church
- security upgrades for Holy Family Academy
- renovation of the kitchen in Fr. Moorman Hall
- parish library
Many thanks to all those who have already generously made sacrifices! This new facility will be a great blessing to everyone in the parish for generations to come! -
Thanks to Our Capital Campaign Committee!
The Campaign Committee has been working diligently since January to educate, inform, and inspire parishioners to make a commitment towards a new Parish Life Center. Through weekly announcements, Town Hall Meetings, and Home Gatherings, information has been shared about our vision for a Parish Life Center and how everyone can help turn this long-cherished dream into a reality.
Please contact the Campaign Committee Chair Bill Schroeder (763.498.3745) with any suggestions you may have.
