For the last 18 months our parish has been planning the construction of a new parish hub at 44 Imperial Parade Labrador (behind St Joseph the worker church). This new building, Lumen Christi Centre, will serve the parish needs now and for many years to come. It will function as a space for all our parish activities including feast day celebrations, RCIA, parish pastoral council, sacramental preparation meetings, catechism and faith groups discussions as well as a place for gathering after Mass. It will help to bring “the light of Christ” into our parish life. Now that we have received approval from Council, we are seeking your help to raise funds to assist the construction costs of this beautiful building. The estimated cost of the building, including fit out, will be in excess of $500,000 and we are seeking parishioners’ assistance to raise around $350,000.
In the finishing stages we will be placing elegant marble tiles on some of the walls and internal columns. These featured areas can have a personal engraved dedication to the memory of a loved one or your favourite Saint. You can leave a lasting sign of your love and help build our parish at the same time. There will be two (2) tile dedication options - a large tile for $1000 or a smaller one for $500. Please see details on the back of this sheet to provide information for your message and methods of payment. More information and donation options can be found online at our parish website www.scp.org.au/LCC. There are only 300 tiles available. People who are wanting to donate larger amounts such as $5000 may be able to dedicate other parts of the building (please Contact Terry Naug for details). Donations smaller than $500 are also gratefully accepted and we expect to use these to purchase chairs, audio visual equipment and other items. All benefactors will receive a certificate of appreciation
