Thank you to all parishioners who participated in our recent parish planning study by attending an interview, focus group, or by returning the questionnaire.
As you know, for the past year and a half, our Building and Grounds Committee has been evaluating our parish facilities and assessing deferred maintenance. They have reported that sections of the original part of the church, most notably the tower, are in need of significant repair and reconstruction. Our heating and cooling systems need updating and our parking lot needs repaving and improved lighting. These are just some of the projects that have been deferred over the years because we are unable to address them through our regular operating budget.
Your opinions and suggestions expressed through the planning study will enable us to formulate a final plan that will help meet the needs of our entire parish. A summary of the findings will be in the bulletin after Labor Day.
