Capital Campaign News & Update
November, 2023
Dear Parish Family,
I am thrilled to share some incredible news with all of you. Our All Saints Renewed Capital Campaign has achieved a remarkable milestone, with pledges totaling $1,174,006.
This outpouring of support has exceeded our initial goal for church renovations and inspired us to embark on three additional essential projects. I kindly invite those unable to contribute to the church renovations to consider supporting these new endeavors.
Our Commitment to UPCSA
Our commitment to the Upper Peninsula Catholic Services Appeal (UPCSA) remains as we pledge to contribute $103,000 to further the mission of the Catholic Church across the Upper Peninsula. This amount was included in the Renewed goal.
Parish Improvements
Parking Lot Repair
Our parish parking lot has developed hazards due to sinking asphalt around the school foundation. To address this issue, we’ve initiated a repair project costing $23,000, which involves asphalt replacement, removal of the school foundation, and surface resealing.
Parish Air Conditioning
To ensure a comfortable environment for all, we need to replace the aging air conditioning in our parish. The estimated cost for the new AC unit, including installation, is $35,300.
Parish Hall Renovation
Our beloved parish hall serves various functions, from funeral luncheons to religious education classes and parish meetings. It's time for a well-deserved update, including new light fixtures, electrical work, fresh paint, and repairs to the suspended ceiling, with an estimated cost of $16,800.
Your Support Matters
No matter the size of your contribution, we deeply appreciate your willingness to support our parish. Our campaign is founded on the principle of "equal sacrifice, not equal gifts." We encourage you to prayerfully consider a pledge of $2,500, which translates to a monthly payment of $70 over three years. If your circumstances allow for a more substantial pledge, your generosity will have a profound impact on our parish's future.
