Dear beloved brothers and sisters in Christ,

We hope to start the renovation of our church this summer. Like a baby, it will take about nine months. During the renovation, Mass will be in the Parish Center. The Mass schedule will change after May 12, 2025.

The Nativity church renovation to refresh and renew our spiritual home is growing closer to reality because nearly 400 families of our parish have pledged over $2.6M to Nativity Catholic Church | The Legacy Continues Capital Campaign - Catholic Foundation Central. The strong response could get us to work a year ahead of schedule. This would mean big savings from rising construction costs and put our funds to work now. 

I personally believe that the reason why we have been blessed is because so many people were impressed by the beautiful design and carefully chosen finishes. Those families who have already made a donation agree that our vision for our beloved Nativity Catholic Church reflects our love of a God who is all things true and beautiful. The-Legacy-Continues-Brochure-Nativity_web.pdf

With full transparency, we have work yet to do. We hope to raise the remaining $500K by June 2025 and reach our goal of $3.2M. Fully funding the project will allow us to do all the renovations needed. Many of these include the things not flashy but are necessary to maintain, such as the fire panel and lighting system controls and upgraded sound system.

To those who have made a pledge, thank you! Your sacrifice is an investment in the next generation of faith.

To those who could not make a pledge or made only a one-time gift, please take it to prayer. Then join me during Mass on May 4 to make your pledge.

After Mass on May 4, we will sneak a preview of the improvements of the Parish Center. For those of you coming to the 11:30 a.m. Mass, please join me at the parish picnic for a cook-out and fellowship. 

Blessed Easter!

Fr. David Scotchie
