ST JOSEPH - FACILITY FUND GIVING
We are called to be good stewards and part of this is maintaining the facility both for safety and to support the Mission of St. Joseph. St. Joseph’s Facility Fund expenditures are made beyond the regular, normal upkeep of physical properties (i.e. Land, Buildings, and Equipment) for the repair or replacement of failed or failing building components as necessary to return the facilities to be in good working order, to prevent further damage, or to make it compliant with changes in laws, regulations, codes or standards.
Currently key expenditures for this 2019/2020 fiscal year include:
Parish Center Boiler Replacement
The furnace that heats our building has failed after being a dedicated service unit for over 50 years. After reviewing multiple bids Yale Mechanical is installing the boiler following asbestos abatement that was necessary. Total Cost is $138,085
Parish Center Projector System and Screen Replacements
Our current projectors are over 15 years old and we can no longer get replacement parts for the units. We will be moving to a digital system replacing the outdated analog system. In addition to the projectors, the large display screens need replacement due to the change in projection size, historically a square image, today a wide rectangular image. The new screens in combination with the new projectors will provide an improved picture and bring us up to date. We are in the process of taking bids and deciding the best option for the new projectors/screens. Total Cost is $60,000.
With Gratitude,
Father Terry Rassmussen & The Parish Finance Council
