This past weekend, St. Mary Catholic Church in Ireland announced plans for a capital fund drive to its members.
The effort will be entitled the “Building for Our Future” Campaign. Its aim is to raise the funds required to build a new church.
Now a minimum goal of $3 Million and challenge goal of $6 Million have been set.
The campaign will officially commence with a special Kick-Off Celebration scheduled for this coming Sunday, March 19th and will culminate on Commitment Weekend Sunday, June 4th. Members and select others will be personally visited and invited to support the project before or by then.
Walsh & Associates, Church Fundraising Specialists, a Burnsville, Minnesota based fund raising consulting firm, is providing campaign advice and assistance.
