Our call to a life of stewardship leads us to reflect on the countless blessings God has bestowed upon us.  We may ask ourselves, how can we use those blessings to praise, revere, and serve God?  As you have heard at Mass, our Diocese is moving forward with the Legacy of Hope Capital Campaign.  This campaign will directly help our parish complete our own projects, while supporting our retired priests, Catholic education, parish based charitable outreach, evangelization and structural repairs to our St. Paul Cathedral.

Our parish target is to raise $439,837 in pledges, with 40% of all monies raised to be returned to St. Bernadette Parish.  If we surpass our target, 60% of all funds above and beyond the target will be returned to our parish.  We will use all funds collected toward:

• Updating and Repairs to our Church Building:  Flooring, kneelers, lighting, painting, sound system, church steps
• Technology:  Install technology equipment in the church to enable live streaming of Masses, Novena, and sacramental celebrations to our homebound, sick and elderly.  This will also provide for family members who live in other communities to participate in First Communion, Confirmation, Baptism and Wedding celebrations.
• Long Term Plans:  Repair the parking lot, landscape church property, update the Pastoral Center.

Please review the materials provided and prayerfully consider supporting this historic endeavor.
