Capital Campaign
Help your parish realize the dream of a new parish
hall. We will be able to reach out so much more to
our faith community as well as our city community
with this facility. Let God guide you in your
decision. Meetings are scheduled for early next
year to discuss building issues. Keep the project in
your prayers and if you haven't pledged, now is the
time. Extra Envelopes can be found in the narthex.
Call the rectory with questions or call Christine
Farr (309) 333-7274.
~~God asks us to give of our time, treasures or
talents. What do you give?
