SECOND CAMPAIGN
- Reason for delay between campaigns drives (Phase I and Phase II)
- Partly due to: Rotation of Priests, New Bishop
- Selection of Mark Davy & Associates
- Several options considered (i.e. other firms, can we do this on
our own?)
- Professional firm recommended by Diocese
- Campaign Readiness Study
- 100 - households contacted for interview
- 42 - households responded
- 300 - households received written survey
- 133 - households responded
- 43.75% response
- How informed are you on the building project?
- Very well informed - 38%
- Reasonably well informed - 92%
- Somewhat informed - 47 / 177 (98%)
- Uninformed - 4%
- How essential is the project?
- Very essential - 64%
- Essential - 56%
- Somewhat essential - 53 / 173 (94%)
- Non-essential - 11%
- Areas of concern?
- Economy - 18%
- Raising the money - 17%
- Donations of Time, Talent & Treasure - 14%
- Lack of communication - 14%
DESIGN FEATURES
- Exterior – not traditional cruciform
- Design uses features in “3’s”, symbolizing the Trinity
- Interior – semi-circular seating
- Current pews likely to be re-used
- Interior art & environment – some additions/large Crucifix
- Re-use Current Statuary
- Re-use elements of windows
- Re-use Stations
- Re-use Alter
- Re-use Tabernacle
- Seating for 1,100+/- (currently 600+/-)
WHEN WILL WE BUILD?
- Diocese loan program currently being reviewed/revised
- Obviously, the more successful the current drive, the better
(projected $2.5 to $3 million)
- Plan preparation alone will take +/- 1 year
- A THIRD Capital Campaign will likely be needed to pay off incurred
debt
