Restoring Our Home

Dear Parishioners

I am happy to report that our new boiler is in and we have heat in our church.

“Restoring our Home” Capital Campaign pledge commitments continue to grow.

As of this week, pledges add up to $351,334.00 and we have a total of $143,474.11 in payments. If you have not yet completed your pledge card, I ask that you kindly consider doing so. While we are off to a good start, we have a way to go if we are to reach our goal and be able to complete the many projects outlined in our Campaign brochure.

Thank you to the 191 families who have supported our Campaign with their pledges. We must also thank the 130 families who are donating to the campaign without making a pledge and thank you to the several people who have donated in memory of a loved one. All of these will help us to continue to take care of our facilities at St. Andrew the Apostle.

Fr. Jacek
