    • Led by Love Update by Fr. Mike

      In the Spring of 2017 we launched ‘Led by Love’, a five year capital campaign to fund our parish expansion plan. From donations received in the first year we completed Phase 1 in November of 2018 (redesigning our entranceway, adding restrooms and new rooms for liturgical ministries). Our goal is to complete Phases 2 & 3 in the next few years.
       
      Here is where we stand with Led by Love:

      Led by Love original campaign goal $2,000,000
      Pledged to date $1,735,935  (87% of goal)
      Actual monies received to date* $1,009,745 (as of 1/31/20)
      Monies spent on Phase 1 $675,000 (construction & campaign expenses)
      Monies available for remaining phases $359,656 (as of 1/31/20)
      Anticipated Income from remaining pledges** $577,000
      Participation goal 600 households making a pledge
      Households pledging to date 365 households (60% of goal)

      * Donors were given the option to fulfill their pledge over five years and we are now in year three. 
      **Approximately 90% of pledges are being fulfilled which has created a shortfall of $175,000.
      From original donors we are anticipating $577,000 over the next two and a half years.
       
      One year ago we entered into discussions with St. Pius X Regional School about the possibility of constructing a six room Early Learning Center behind the church. This would have expanded the school’s program to add new classes for 3 and 4 year olds. Once built, the parish would have been given exclusive use of three classrooms which the school would be vacating. Unfortunately the construction cost proved to be prohibitive for the school.  So the school has opted to reconfigure its existing space to make room for a more modest early learning program.
       
      As a result, our parish’s original expansion plan is back on track. We have met with four architectural firms who are interested in working with us to provide designs and updated cost estimates for Phase 2 (fellowship space to the right of the church) and Phase 3 (space for our children’s programs behind the church). Later this year we will be conducting a mini capital campaign to get more parishioners committed so we can reach our Led by Love goal and complete the expansion plan.
       
      Please continue to pray for Led by Love and the future of our parish. God is blessing St. Pius X and we are growing. In the months of January and February, fifteen new families attended our new member gathering and registered as parishioners. New members tell us over and over that they are drawn to St. Pius because of all that we offer - especially our programs for kids and students.  At a time when so many churches are struggling I am extremely hopeful about the future of St. Pius X Church. With the commitment and generosity of all our parishioners, our future will be bright. May God bless St. Pius X Church as we continue to make our parish vision a reality:
       
      To form disciples who joyfully live out the mission of Jesus Christ in Bowie
       
                                Sincerely,
                                Fr. Mike Jones & the Led by Love Campaign Cabinet
