CAPITAL CAMPAIGN UPDATE:

UPDATE--September 2023: As you may recall, in February the Knights of Columbus Council 4442 in Salem pledged to match “new” donations to our Capital Campaign over a 3-week
period, up to $25,000, potentially doubling many individual’s donations. The response was fantastic! Parishioners added just over $45,000 to the fund! The KofC Council is thrilled, and they have written the Parish a check to match the FULL amount -- $45,000. Including recent donations, our “thermometer” is now at $300,000! Please continue to support this campaign.
We are well on our way to getting important renovations accomplished.

Thank You! Fr. Marc & the Finance Committee


With many notable improvements completed in the past few years, we now want to upgrade the facilities at MQP. New sheetrock walls and painting have been started. We need to
upgrade all restrooms in the church and office/classroom areas (including handicapped accessibility), replace the flooring in the church, raise the altar for better visibility, move the choir area, update the kitchen in the function space, refurbish all the pews, and some safety-related features. While a firm budget for all of this is not yet available, we have asked the Bishop for permission to get started on a campaign to raise up to $500,000 for this effort over the next 2 years, starting November 1st, 2022. We will proceed with projects on a prioritized basis, and do not intend to pursue any loans from the Diocese for this.
Donations or pledges to this important effort can be made online by clicking the button below
2022-24 Capital
Campaign
or by using the envelopes available in the pews. Please make checks payable to Saints Mary & Joseph Parish, and write “2022-24 Capital Campaign” in the memo line. We will give periodic updates on this, and of course, you will hopefully see the work on improvements as they progress. We hope you will join in supporting this ongoing campaign.

FINANCES: We hope you will see that a lot of good work has been accomplished in restoring Saints Mary & Joseph Parish to a more hopeful financial future, in order to support our many wonderful spiritual and Eucharistic celebrations, programs and ministries.
Also, with the help of your donations, generous support from the Knights of Columbus and major donors, Safety Grants from the Diocese, and volunteer efforts, we have accomplished an impressive list of repairs and upgrades in a relatively short time.
