a new parish center…

FOR THE NEW EVANGELIZATION

 

About the project

We are building a new Parish Center for the benefit of our parish family, and the entire community of Aurora at large! It will feature: A durable and beautiful space to receive the 12,000+ weekly visitors who come to our parish to worship, to receive financial and spiritual support, and to grow as a family of faith. A new parish hall and upgraded kitchen, capable of supporting our many special events. New features, such as a religious store, a coffee room/cafeteria, a youth room, a nursery, a senior’s room, and a hospitality room. Sufficient classrooms to receive the thousands of youth and parents enrolled in religious education classes. A new and easily accessible Adoration Chapel. Much more!

THE NEED

Spiritually, the importance of this project is crucial. In the midst of a pandemic that has brought uncertainty and fear, we want to build a parish center that will give us hope. In a year filled with unprecedented division and social unrest, we want to build a parish center that will unify us. In a time that the pandemic has caused the divorce rates to increase, we want to build a parish center that will strengthen our marriages. In a time when youth anxiety and depression have skyrocketed, we want to build a parish center that will teach them the truth about their lives. In a moment when our elderly are bearing the brunt of this pandemic, we want to build a parish center that will show them the consolation and love of Christ.

A PLACE OF BEAUTY
