Holy Spirit Catholic Church
Campaign Purpose
Holy Spirit Catholic Church & School needed to make their facilities welcoming, accessible, secure, and designed to meet their current and future needs. They developed a plan to renovate and expand their existing Parish Center and convert their school gym into a new Parish Hall to meet their demand for large, medium, and small sized meeting and event spaces. They would then link their facilities with an addition between the school and church, build a new school gymnasium, and make other improvements.
Walsh & Associates helped them develop their One in the Spirit / Juntos en un Solo Espíritu capital campaign to raise funds to fulfill their plans. Their community responded enthusiastically and generously and exceeded their challenge goal. They raised over 3.8 times their annual giving!
Under the difficult conditions of the pandemic, construction was undertaken and the Holy Spirit church and school is rejuvenated with the new facilities and community spirit (construction photo above).
Testimonials
“Before embarking on this campaign, I would say 90% of the parishioners I spoke with did not believe it would be possible to make our goal given the advanced age of the parish population and the large influx of immigrants over the years. Your system has proven that if you follow the system that has worked hundreds of times at other churches around the country and if you have a little faith, miracles can happen.”
~ Stephen Day, Creative Giving Chair
“Walsh did a great job! We met our goal and then some. They are the reason for our success.”
~ Joe Ritter, Hospitality Chair

Helping Churches Reach New Heights in their Capital Campaigns
Our mission is to be great stewards, to live up to the Parable of Talents and to bring out the best in those we serve. Our consistent and proven-to-be-successful approach to directing church capital campaigns helps assure this. We just work with churches, only do capital campaigns and ground them in prayer, scripture and sound stewardship teachings. Then we combine this with practical, proven-to-be-most-productive operating methods. This not only assures you of getting the best results and best return on your capital campaign investment financially, but also, that your church will grow spiritually and in community and will be more equipped and excited than ever about doing God’s will through the works of your church.
