Updates
01
Bathroom Renovations
Small church bathrooms received better fixtures, wall and hardware. Eventual coded push-button security for after-hours’ use is on the way. But before this modest improvement we needed to repair significant roof leaks, which were traced to the top of the building where fir needles created small dams that backed up water under the tiles. So … spent to lower the trees $8,000+. Spent to remove roof tiles, inspect and repair roof and replace tiles: $30,000+. Cost to upgrade small bathrooms: negligible because of great volunteers! — less than $10,000
02
School Projects
Our strategy is to do the bulk of the school projects first: they will be done by the end of the summer. Projected cost: $600,000+
Projects of this size feel like they take forever, and are soooo expensive… but worth it, since we aim to ensure a vibrant Catholic presence her for decades to come.
Our donor list is large, but a large number of parish families have yet to enroll in the RRR campaign. The Continuation Committee is planning a second appeal, coming shortly.
