ST. Paul Master Plan
-
our field
of dreams
St. Paul Catholic Church campus expansion
program
Our campus expansion program is
underway! Our logo appears below
look for it on T-shirts and polo shirts worn by many parishioners at
parish events. You, too, can own a T-shirt or polo shirt with this logo
representing our campus expansion program. Shirts will be available for
purchase. Watch your Sunday bulletins for information or call the office
at 381-5200!

Phase I, the
parking lot expansion program, is nearing completion. It is on time, on
budget, and we are blessed to be able to pay for this phase out of our
savings. Phase II, the construction of our Religious Education Center,
is next.
As you know, finding a
parking spot at any of our Masses can be inconvenient. During special
events such as our Festival and during scheduled CFF classes parking
becomes much more than an inconvenience. It becomes a safety issue. The
safety of our children and other parishioners is paramount and for that
reason a plan was submitted to the Bishop for approval.
The parking improvement plan, as approved, will:
-
add 180 new
parking spaces.
-
resurface all
existing parking spaces, and
-
improve the
pedestrian traffic flow to the church via paved walkways.
The plan has been
approved. Work on
the parking improvements is expected to cost $550,000. Work on both of
these projects should be completed in one year.
Future Events
Registered
parishioners will continue to receive special pink collection envelopes in the
mail in which they may place donations toward the capitol funding drive
pending the launching of our official Fund Drive. It is hoped that each family will use these envelopes on a monthly
basis to help us reach our financial goals for this expansion. If you
are not currently registered but attend St. Paul Parish, we urge you to
register by filling out a registration form (found at the entrances of
the church) and dropping it in the collection basket. If you attend
church at St. Paul Parish you are a parishioner and one of us. This is
your church. Please
read
Father Rey's personal message to you.

The second phase of
campus improvements will include:
-
removing the
WWII-surplus property buildings now used as the rectory and office,
-
removing the old
Parish Hall (where the White Elephant Sale is held), and the
portable structures,
-
construction of a
new rectory, office, and education center.
It is estimated
that the overall cost of the campus expansion project will be
in the range of $8 million. It is expected that these new buildings will be in place in 5 to 7
years. It is required that we have 40% of the expected costs, in the
bank, before we can begin construction.
Our first parish meeting to discuss the specifics of the religious
education center will be scheduled in 2007.

proposed plan
is available for viewing in PDF format. You will need a PDF reader
