St. Catherine of Siena Parish
Capital
Repair Projects List
As of February 13, 2
One of the suggestions at the latest State of the Parish address was to publish a needs/wish list of projects for the parish. The primary purpose is to make needs of the parish known, in case someone would like to contribute to their resolution. I am willing to publish this list, but with two caveats:
1) This is not a collection. If you are contributing what you think God wants you to contribute, there is no pressure on you to give more.
2) Do not take money away from your parish pledge to donate to a project. This is for two reasons. First, that will affect the amount of money we send to the diocese. I have no problem with restricted donations, but not in lieu of regular, pledged contributing to the parish income. We must abide by the spirit of diocesan regulations regarding assessments. Second, although we do have practical needs here, our greater need is a spiritual one, that we all learn true stewardship. I still have hopes that we can get to the point of operating completely from our regular offertory contributions.
Two final thoughts: First, if you have expertise in an area that shows up as a need/wish, it might be an opportunity for what people call an in-kind donation, doing the work yourself, or perhaps teaching someone how to do it. Second, if you see any needs around the campus, or have an idea that would improve our plant, call someone on our Facilities Committee with it – Dave Mullen, Tommy New or Mary Brzinski.
