Re-Igniting Our Faith :
St. Madeleine Sophie

The Re-Igniting Our Faith Campaign's main goal is to provide a spark that will help to rekindle faith for our parishioners and all members of the Albany Diocese through a new form of evangelization tailored to the unique needs of each parish.

In St. Madeleine Sophie Parish, our objectives toward that overall goal are:

· Provide better hospitality by updating and renovating the parish center kitchen, sound and air conditioning systems, and re-face the exterior

· Upgrade technology throughout our campus for improved faith-formation, adult enrichment and schooling options

· Provide a new organ that better suits the size of our new church building to enhance liturgical celebrations

· Enhance our Pastoral Care Outreach and Bereavement Ministry by hiring a full time Pastoral Care Coordinator

· Establish a fund that will enable us to host speakers, workshops and events

· Develop and expand a new after-school program in various user-friendly ways

We will assist the Diocese to achieve the following objectives:

· Provide critical funding to assist our retired priests, many of whom are still active in parishes

· Enhance support for vocations

· Update resources to provide distance learning and a variety of speakers, retreats and youth and young adult ministries

· Develop Innovative and flexible Catholic Schooling resources and provide scholarships.
