Campaign Reaches Goal!Through the generosity of our parishioners during our very successful 2006-2009 Fulfilling Our Promisecapital campaign, we raised $6 million toward our $10.3 million building project. When we add in the $1.3 million in carrying costs and expenses, we are left a current debt of $5.6 million. To address our needs, we initiated an intensive fundraising effort entitled Fulfilling Our Promise: The Debt Reduction Phase campaign. Our aim with this important effort has been to raise the funds required to reduce our debt from our extensive church and school renovations - a minimum goal of $3 million was set. As of July 27 our pledges have reached $3,078,817. While the active phase of soliciting pledges is over, pledges will continue to be accepted by contacting Cindy Schriever, Dir. of Development, 952.473.6601 ext 228. Whatever the gift, please be assured that your support is both needed and will be greatly appreciated. Please join us in this exciting and essential effort to better our service to one another, to our community, and to Christ.
The Heart of the Matter (55+ Seminar)Father Michael will “unveil” and talk about the newest art installation at Saint Bartholomew: a gallery of more than 300 images illustrating the life of Jesus. You can be among the first to enjoy this inspirational addition to our parish.
