SJPC Faith Commitment Weekend Update

We are so excited to continue to share about our progress with our new St. Joseph Parish Center capital campaign, a project that will allow us to better serve our growing parish family.

During Faith Commitment Weekend last weekend, Fr. Jake invited us to bring our Faith Commitment pledge cards to the altar, giving our gifts to Jesus. Many of us made a commitment of faith to this campaign. We were asked to commit to prayer or financial giving, and we are so grateful to share about the incredible response so far. 

Prayer is at the heart of everything we do, and 123 parishioners have already committed to intentionally pray for the campaign, providing a vital foundation for all we hope to build. Jesus tells us: “all that you ask for in prayer, believe that you will receive it and it shall be yours.”

Second, our financial faith commitments. Our goal is to go over $15 million dollars. As of last weekend, we have received 344 pledges totaling $12.3 million dollars. We are so grateful for your sacrificial gifts and continued support. Jesus tells us that where our treasure is, there also our hearts will be. Our financial giving is an act of discipleship, and it has paved the way for our hearts to be increasingly invested in our common faith home.

If you are still discerning your pledge, cards can be returned in the Narthex drop boxes or at the Parish Office at any time. If you have questions or want to talk more about the project, our team is ready to talk with you. We will keep sharing updates in the coming months during Mass and through our website and parish communications.
