Today, we would traditionally celebrate the Epiphany of the Lord, recognizing the Word
becoming flesh in the presence of the Christ Child. Our readings today share the story of the
three kings bringing forth their gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh for the new born king.
I want to take this opportunity to thank you for helping make our Legacy of Faith Campaign a
reality. It started with a group of parishioners evaluating our current facilities and looking to the
future with a potential for growth. From these conversations and surveys it was determined that
a new facility would be the best use of our resources.
Since that time a team of parishioners have assisted me in reaching out to the parish, seeking
their financial support. At the time of this writing, I am happy to report that we have obtained
approximately $4,900,000 in cash and pledges. It is my goal that we reach $6,000,000 in cash
and pledges by July 1, 2023. If you have already made a pledge or a donation, thank you for
your support and commitment to this project.
If you have not yet made a pledge or donation, would you consider joining our success? For this
project to be successful, it is going to require the prayers and support of everyone. Thank you
for your consideration.
In the days and weeks ahead you will start to see activity on the St. Ludmila property. A safety
fence has been installed, asbestos has been removed, soon the utilities will be moved and
demolition of the 1958 school building will begin. In the weeks and months following, the
debris will be removed and the area will be prepared for our Community Center. We are hoping
to start the building process in late March or early April with a completion date of approximately
July 1, 2024!
Thank you for your support and encouragement.
Fr. Kenneth J. Glaser
