I'm excited to share with you a big improvement coming this summer to make our parish even more welcoming than it already is.
We’re going to resurface a large portion of the west parking lot, including the area with the circle drive that includes most of our handicapped and accessible parking spaces. The City of White Bear Lake has already approved the plan, and we're working hard to set dates to do it.
This is important work. After all, this is a church where we want people to fall in love with Jesus Christ -- not fall into a pothole.
We’ve received meaningful commitments from parishioners to create a matching gift fund to help raise the $35,000 cost of the project. These parishioners will match the total donations made to the parish for this project up to the amount of their commitments.
If you want to participate as a donor to the project, please enclose your gift in a blank envelope and mark it "Parking Lot Appeal". If your gift is by check or stock, please make sure somewhere you mark it for this purpose. You can put your gift in the weekly collection or turn it in to the office.
We will share our progress as the month progresses. God willing, we'll have a great parking lot very soon!
