In working with parish leaders and after much prayer and discernment, we have decided to conduct a feasibility study to determine whether a capital campaign to address our most pressing needs is possible. We are considering a campaign to address the critical need of eliminating a $3,000,000 debt.
Over the course of the next several weeks, we will be inviting all of you to participate in this feasibility study. This is an opportunity to share YOUR thoughts and feelings about the parish, its future and whether you see the need for this campaign.
This study will take place in two parts. Some parishioners will be receiving a letter requesting a personal interview. This is an opportunity to confidentially share your personal thoughts about the parish and its future. The interview can be conducted at your home, here at the parish, or if needed, can be arranged over the phone. Please call the parish office to schedule an appointment soon after receiving your invitation letter.
Many of you will be receiving a questionnaire in the mail. You will have the option to complete a paper questionnaire or participate online, whichever you prefer. We ask that everyone participate in this study by completing their questionnaire and returning it prior to October 25th.
Thank you in advance for your participation. I am truly looking forward to hearing from you! Please continue to pray for our parish family as we embark on discerning our future.
In the upper right-hand side of the home page is the “Studies” box where parishioners can access a drop down menu under “Organization,” select “Sacred Heart Catholic Church- Valley Park, MO” and input their confidential questionnaire password that they received in the mail (ex. SHCC####).
