In 2023, our parish Lenten Almsgiving fundraiser exceeded its $10,000 goal in under four weeks. The Outreach Mission Team has partnered with local nonprofits to ensure funds were allocated responsibly, focusing on verified needs. Over the past two years, the parish has assisted individuals with rent, utilities, refugee resettlement, and more. We've also launched new programs, including a pantry for underprivileged children and Helping Hands Care Bags for the homeless. A portion of funds saved a parish family's relatives fleeing persecution. Current balance: $8,184.52.
Consider helping our parish outreach ministry raise money this Lent to help meet the needs of Oshkosh’s poorest - with a special focus on pro-life causes. Learn more about our goals for this challenge.
Stewardship is a personal responsibility for all parishioners to engage in a lifestyle of prayer, service and sharing. Learn more about opportunities for prayer, service and sharing at MBS.
Parishioner and Lourdes Academy Foundation Board President Mary Buttke shared why supporting the one by One Capital Campaign is important and the difference Catholic education has made for her family at Masses on July 10 & 11.
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.
There is a serious obligation for a pastor to report each year on how the offerings or tithings of parishioners and other donors have been used. Transparency in financial administration and accountability to donors are important values in the administration of Church goods. Our Annual Meeting reports each Fall provide a clear and transparent account to all those who donate to MBS.
