What happens to your Church Alive! donations?
Please be aware that you have the choice to request a refund! Most parishioners who have contributed to the Church Alive! campaign are aware that about one half of their donations have been reserved to be spent in St. John Vianney Parish. There is a total of over $75,000 in that fund. Since Bishop Zubik has decreed that the parish will be divided, you have the option to request a refund. In his letter to parishioners on July16, 2015, Bishop Zubik included information about the Church Alive funds. It states that parishioners “may request a refund of their contributions to date”. (see the attachment below for a copy of this information.) We have also attached a form you can print and mail to the Campaign for the Church Alive! for your refund. St. George Church Preservation Society is raising money to to fund the restoration of the church. Please consider making a donation or pledge to support this cause.
