Our Parish Projects & Repairs
Welcome to our Parish Projects & Repairs page. Here you’ll find updates on the maintenance and improvement projects that help preserve and enhance our church campus. Our Church was dedicated on June 28, 1992, and the Education Center was dedicated on September 21, 2014. As we continue to grow and serve our parish community, we remain committed to being good stewards of the beautiful facilities entrusted to us. This page offers transparency about upcoming and ongoing projects, including costs, funding progress, and timelines. Thank you for your continued support and generosity.
2025 Capital Repairs Projects
Fire Alarm System Upgrade (81K Raised)
Our church’s fire alarm system is vital for safeguarding our parish community and facilities. As of June 2025, the Diocese has given formal approval to proceed, and our plans are now under review by the Loudoun County permit department. Thanks to the generosity of our parishioners, we have raised $81,000 toward this critical upgrade, and a generous matching gift of $35,000 has fully funded the project. We look forward to completing installation of the new, code-compliant system soon, ensuring the highest level of protection for everyone who worships, works, and gathers here.
Parking Lot Resurfacing Project
Our parking lot is in need of maintenance to keep it safe and welcoming for all who visit. This summer of 2025, we plan to seal coat, crack-fill, and restripe the entire lot at an estimated cost of $35,000. Funding will come from our Capital Repairs & Improvement Fund, supplemented by Father Gould’s generous $1,000 gift and an $8,000 match from the Knights of Columbus. These contributions bring us significantly closer to our goal, ensuring a smooth, durable surface for vehicles and pedestrians alike.
Lower Sacristy Window Replacement
The original wood windows in our lower sacristy have developed significant rot over the years, leading to drafts, moisture intrusion, and reduced energy efficiency. We estimate the total cost for replacing these windows with modern, low-maintenance vinyl units to be between $3,700 and $5,000. Installing vinyl windows will not only restore the integrity of the sacristy but also provide improved insulation and longevity with minimal upkeep.
2025 Special Projects Wish List
Playground Project (45K Raised as of June 2025)
Our parish playground will provide a safe, welcoming space where our youngest members can grow in friendship, faith, and fun. We plan to complete the entire playground for $150,000, building in manageable phases to ensure careful planning and quality. The first phase—a versatile climber structure—will cost approximately $50,000 and is slated for installation by Fall 2025. To date, we have raised $45,000 toward this initial phase, leaving just $5,000 to fully fund the climber.

Knights’ Hall Freezer Replacement
This spring, our original commercial double-door freezer in Knights Hall reached the end of its service life and can no longer keep up with our food-storage needs for parish events. Replacing it is a top priority on our projects wish list to ensure we have reliable, temperature-controlled storage for receptions, fundraisers, and community gatherings. We are currently gathering quotes and expect a replacement cost estimate soon. If you’d like to help us secure a new freezer, your support would be greatly appreciated.
