Campaign Nears $1.6 Million!

As we begin a very active fall season, we are pleased to announce that our Build the Spirit Campaign is nearing $1.6 million in pledges. This amount represents more than half of the estimated cost of $3 million to construct the Parish Community Center and make other needed improvements to our school and other parish facilities. Please accept our thanks for getting us to this point! It is also good news that we have already received close to $600,000 in payments toward these pledges.

Our immediate goal is to obtain an additional $100,000 in pledge payments by Saturday, September 30. If this objective is achieved, we will have $700,000 in pledge payments combined with $500,000 in existing funds, for a total of $1.2 million. We will then be able to go to the Diocese for selection of an architect.

We are so close to this next step! How can you help?

• If you have already received campaign materials but not yet returned your pledge form, please return it in the confidential envelope by mail or in person to the Rectory Office, or place it in the regular collection at Mass.
• If you have not yet attended a campaign event, please come to one of the upcoming weekend receptions to learn how you might participate in the campaign.
• If you have made a pledge, please consider an initial payment or additional payments at this time to help our cash flow objective.

The success of our Campaign and of Building the Spirit at St. Charles can be accomplished only if we have full participation from the Parish-wide community. Thank you.
