Lift High the Cross... Continuing the Mission


"Every day they devoted themselves to meeting together"
- Acts 2:46

New Parish Life Center

Our Need

St. Michael Parish recognizes the importance of carrying out

our spiritual mission in today’s world. In addition to daily

Mass, we offer small Christian community faith sharing

groups to strengthen parishioners’ relationships with one

another and the Church.


Our parish offers over 50 additional outreach ministries

including support groups, young adult groups, rosary makers,

nursing home visitors as well as biblical and liturgical study

groups.



There are also several ministries which aim to reach

international populations including the Filipino and Hispanic

communities.

Our Plan

Our plans for the Parish Life Center include additional meeting space to include:


  • A banquet hall with the capacity to hold 250+ individuals (this space can be divided for additional meeting spaces).


  • A warming kitchen with builder’s quality countertops, cabinets, and fixtures, framed and ready to receive a commercial kitchen. A commercial kitchen costs $400,000-$500,000 and is not part of our current projected costs. If we surpass our goal, we can look into finishing the commercial kitchen.


  • Three meeting rooms with movable walls, including a kitchenette.


  • Additional storage and maintenance space.



  • Additional parking.


How You Can Get Involved

During the Lift High the

Cross...continuing the

mission Capital Campaign,

vision, giving every family a

chance to participate.


Throughout the campaign, we

invite everyone at St. Michael

to:


  • Pray for the campaign’s success.


  • Serve as ambassadors by sharing key information and encouraging others to participate.

How To Pledge Your Support

The total cost of the Parish Life Center is still being determined, but we recognize that construction and material costs continue to rise. Current estimates suggest

the project’s total expenses will be approximately $6 Million. Through our last campaign, we have already raised approximately $2 Million thanks to the generosity of our parishioners. Through the Lift High the Cross...continuing the mission Capital Campaign, we plan to raise an additional $4 Million with your sacrificial pledges and contributions.


We hope that, with your generosity, we will secure a construction loan and begin building in Fall 2026. The Parish Life Center is expected to be completed and

dedicated around Summer 2027. Every member of our parish is integral to our success in reaching this goal, and, therefore, each family is asked to consider making a pledge to the campaign.
