Together in Faith, Let’s Reach Our Goal – Give to ACA: While your ACA gift brings more than 60 ministries to life across Western Washington, any amount raised beyond our goal will be returned to our parish communities to fund important local projects.
Below are the goals for each parish and how rebate funds will be used:
- St. Alphonsus – Goal: $36,396
- Project: Continue improving the church sound system
- St. Benedict – Goal: $38,016
- Project: Refurbish the monstrance
- St. John the Evangelist – Goal: $101,536
- Project: Repair and upgrade interior church lighting
Together, we can achieve more – for our Church, our parishes, and one another. Click here to make your ACA gift today!
