On our new building program:
Because of a very large gift toward our building program, especially our new church, we are now planning both for new Christian Education space and a beautiful new church building. We invite you to stop by the Church to see provisional drawings. The layout is very space efficient. The rectory will go across Hwy 315. The Christian Education building will go behind the existing church. The new church will go where the rectory now is. The total projected cost is $2.5 million. We have in hand about 1.5 million, so we are very close to being able to move ahead. We are soliciting ideas from the congregation of what you would like to see in this facility. Let the office know.

On giving:
A wild idea in the face of government spending. Some of us who will be receiving the COVID relief $1,400 payment might not need all of it. It is kind of like money falling from heaven. You could send it in a “heavenly” direction by donating it to the St. Boniface Church Endowment Fund. This will be a permanent fund which should yield 5% annually. We can match your gift, 2:1 at this time. Our donor wished his gift to be used to stimulate matching. We need a minimum of $10,000 to establish the fund and a minimum of $50,000 to begin receiving returns.
