With the growth in number of parishioners and activities, the greatest challenge facing St. Patrick’s today is providing adequate worship space for Mass and having a larger hall for parish events. The need for worship space has been apparent for some time, and, as you know, we have undertaken a huge project to build a new church and parish hall.

Our parishioners come from a large geographic area. To continue to build community with a focus on families, we will have more Religious Education (Faith Formation) and office space. Our new parish hall will provide space for both parish and community events, while freeing up the current parish center for more classrooms and offices.

Our New Parish Hall Construction includes:

Upper Level

• Church sanctuary with a capacity of 500
• Gathering Room (narthex) for fellowship before and after Mass
• Sacristy connecting old church to new
• Handicapped accessible bathroom
• Elevator with access to two levels

Lower Level

• Parish Hall with seating capacity of 350
• Kitchen
• Handicapped accessible bathroom
• Foyer with coat closet
• Elevator machine room
• Boiler room
