      Capital Campaign Important Reminder.
      We kindly appeal to  Parishioners who have made a pledge to please begin fulfilling their pledges. For those considering onetime contribution, we greatly welcome your support. Your timely contributions are essential as we work together toward securing the necessary support from the Diocese to begin   critical repairs to our Roof and HVAC System. Your timely contributions are crucial. The Diocese requires that we have 75% of our $750,000, goal. That is,$562,500, in cash on hand before we can move forward with these critical repairs. To date we only have $259,179.33 on hand or 46% of our on hand goal. Thank you for your continued generosity and support.



      Thank you for your continued generosity and support.

      Our Capital Campaign continues to make progress. Any donations go directly to the Campaign. St. Cecelia receives 100% of your donation.  Please respond to the recent mailing envelopes or envelopes in the pews and submit the Pledge Form to the parish office including Faith Direct donations. . Thank you for your consideration in this important effort in our Parish. 

    • About the Capital Campaign

      OUR URGENT NEEDS

      Over the years, our church building has weathered wear and tear, and now, several critical infrastructure projects demand our immediate attention, following their approximate cost:

      Structural Repairs                                                      
      $330,000
      Persistent leaks and structural wear, infestations and other issues that cannot wait any longer, and have been worsening over time. Now these structural issues are reaching a breaking point all at once and must be addressed promptly.
       
      HVAC Replacement & Upgrade
      $838,000
      The outdated HVAC system in our church has become increasingly inefficient leading to heightened energy cost and diminished comfort level.  
                                                 
      Floor Damage Repair & Replacement 
      $74,000
      The flooring in our church, including carpeting has seen years of heavy foot traffic and needs replacement..

      The 2025 Bishop's Annual Appeal
      Parish obligation: $64,000
      Each year the Diocese of Metuchen reaches out to help fund the many ministries of the Diocese. This year, with the capital campaign, the Annual Appeal funds have been achieved.                           


      Stretch Goals

      100% of all funds goes to St. Cecelia.  

      “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will be poured into your lap. For the measure you give will be the measure you get back.” 

      Luke 6:38

      Lord, Our God You called your disciples to build up your church until the end of time. As we grow our parish community, we ask your continued blessing on all those who will assist us. Bless their labors as they turn our dreams into reality. Fill us with the graces that we need to continue our stewardship responsibilities so that, under your care, this endeavor may come to a successful completion. Help us to realize that our sacrifice for the growth of the Catholic faith and the future of Saint Cecelia Church is part of your divine plan.  Amen!
