Lighting Update

11/24/2015

As we focus on Thanksgiving, I want to express my gratitude to all who supported our lighting upgrade by your pledge/donation to the Annual Catholic Appeal. We met our required parish goal ($55,584) and so far have received monthly rebates totaling $14,538.57. We are applying this to upgrade the lighting in our parking lot, church and hall classrooms. We have made significant steps toward our three goals:
  • Safety: the new lights in the parking lot and around the perimeter of our buildings are enhancing the security for our children, families and seniors. For me it is a great feeling to return to the parish in the evening and see our campus so well illuminated.
  • Economy: More efficient lights, together with occupancy sensors in many rooms will bring savings in our utility bills. Snohomish County P.U.D. provides incentives for this energy saving effort - and we are helping protect the environment!
  • Enhanced Participation in Worship: We have improved lighting in our chapel and the inside perimeter of the church. Major work is yet to be done on the lighting on the church ceiling. We are waiting for the final fixtures to arrive before beginning this major project. Current timing for installation is early January.
I thank you all for your patience and support. May God bless you and your family!
