Living Our Faith

Local Parish Fund Applications

Strengthening the parishes and pastoral areas

Parish Share

Our local parishes and pastoral areas are the backbone of the Church, they provide a place for prayer, worship, counsel and community, and it is our responsibility to oversee the necessary continued maintenance and improvement. Through a generous share formula, Living Our Faith will help fund capital projects and ministries identifi ed individually at each parish/ pastoral area. It will also enable parishes to address deferred maintenance.

Parish Share

Living Our Faith is a tremendous opportunity for parishes, 25% monies raised up to goal and raised over goal are used to local priorities.

Application for Funds

A letter detailing the request for application of funds must be sent to the chairman of the Living Our Faith impact committee.
