By now you should have received the one by One campaign information in the mail. As we have shared previously, this campaign is about community. It’s about all Catholics in the Oshkosh area coming together to support Catholic discipleship and evangelization at both the parish level and at Lourdes Academy.
While most of the $10 million goal for the one by One Capital Campaign is going to the Lourdes building project, each parish is also receiving $100,000.
Our parish is working hard to reach out with radical hospitality to ever person in our parish boundary. This campaign will enable us to start a new outreach ministry that will make sure every person who enters our doors feels the love and welcome of Jesus Christ.
The campaign funds will be use to hire a Relationship Coordinator whose primary responsibility will be to serve as an ambassador of the Gospel to all - especially those who feel unloved, unconnected or disengaged from the body of Christ. The Relationship Coordinator will also oversee more complete and permanent Connection Centers at each of our worship sites. The Connection Centers - and the welcoming volunteers who will assist at them - will connect anyone who comes through our doors with the resource and support they need to be healthy in mind, body, and soul.
We have come a long way in a short period of time, but we are going to need your help to bring this campaign to a close. If you have not already done so, please begin to prayerfully consider the best way you and your family can support this effort.
Please prayerfully consider making a gift to make this wonderful project a reality. Thank you for your generosity!
