A NEW ST. PHILIP CAMPUS - Together, we're seeing our way forward!
With more than $5.5 million raised, our "Together in Christ: Building on Firm Foundations" capital campaign to build a parish campus in Flower Mound is entering the next stage.
Where do things stand?
Since launching our campaign, 540 families have made gifts and pledges to the campaign. That's outstanding, and to all those families we say: Thank you!
The good news: The $5.5 million raised should be enough to begin planning our move onto our new 40-acre campus.
What's the next stage?
It's time to assess how we'll phase in the move, given the amount that has been raised. As our theme suggests, we must approach this stage "Together in Christ."
Beginning in late May, we will be undertaking an assessment of the move with the help of the Steier Group, a Catholic development firm from Omaha, Nebraska, that works with parishes across the country, including many in Texas. A Steier Group representative will be on-site to talk with 75-100 parishioners - some who have already given to the campaign and some who have not - to weigh different move-in plans and priorities. In addition, ALL PARISHIONERS will have the opportunity to fill out a survey either by mail or online.
What's the goal of the assessment?
Important decisions on how to phase in the move must be made soon to best utilize what we have already raised and seek final donations. Each family's decision - Can we help? Can we help MORE? - will drive the final move-in designs.
We want to know what you think about the path ahead! Again, it is only together that this project will succeed, and the assessment is intended to help us unite along one path.
