January 28, 2024: New Facilities Update

THANK YOU all for your active participation in our vibrant and growing parish. 

• Thank you to those of you who have donated or made pledges to our Living Our Faith, Building to Serve campaign. 

• You are the reason our project is where it is today and because of your faith and commitment our parish has successfully managed to receive $3.5M in financial pledges from 588 parish families.

• Our campaign’s success is what is helping to fund our goal of constructing a $9.5M new church facility which will also include constructing new administrative space and meeting/classrooms.

• Throughout 2024 we plan to provide ongoing updates on the new facility as well as continue to offer our parishioners the opportunity to participate in the Living our Faith, Building to Serve campaign, with an ultimate goal of having 100% parish participation as this church will be living legacy of our faith for generations to come. 


A lot of work has been completed so far: 

• Parishioners seem excited to begin seeing lots of progress on the project

• Parking lot paved 

• Lighting installed in existing and new parking areas

• Building concrete footings being installed

• Underground piping and electrical work ongoing


We are excited about the progress and timeline moving forward:

• As expected with a construction project of this magnitude, there have also been some unexpected changes to our plan.

• Steel building skeleton is being fabricated with delivery now expected end of March. 

• Building footings, blockwork, and concrete slab and underground electrical and plumbing are scheduled to be complete when the building steel arrives

• Steel will be erected from April thru June.

• Then walls will be framed and insulated and windows installed so that brickwork can be done in the fall

• Mechanical and electrical work will be ongoing in the summer and through the fall

• Interior architectural woodwork, flooring, pew installation, painting will be done in the late fall through winter

• Final inspections and completion is expected in early spring 2025

• As always, this timeline is subject to many things that are out of our control so we will continue to keep you updated (from pulpit, on website, through social media, emails)


So what can you do to help?

• Pray for the continued success of our construction and our ongoing capital campaign

• As we begin to get actual expenses (vs. budget) and we finalize our needs for furnishings, etc., we are constantly reassessing our budget 

• Please prayerfully consider anything you can do to continue to support that program - that may mean making a pledge to the capital campaign (that could be spread out over 4 years) or if you’ve made your pledge but you would like to consider more, consider extending your pledge another year or two to help us to fully furnish our building from day 1

• Over the course of 2024, we will be providing regular updates on the progress we are making on both the Capital Campaign and the New Facilities project - please watch the bulletin and refer to the website for ongoing updates and opportunities to attend a more in-depth presentation on the new facility. 


We look forward to worshipping in our new facility where we will continue to "Love God, Love Others and Make Disciples.”



November 2023: New Facilities Update

Striving to complete a process before nightfall, skilled tradesmen run equipment as the sun sets on the site of our new church. At weekend Mass, while equipment is silent and still, it can be difficult to see forward movement in our new church construction project. 

We’re excited to update you on the progress of our building effort! We’re beginning to see the conclusion of site preparation and the beginning of our next phase, the vertical work that will give us a visible manifestation of the new church.

This fall we’ve seen the ground infrastructure work continue with the majority of the new parking lot completed. (See pictures at left.) Expect the concrete footings to be poured prior to Christmas, with the building slab following in January.

The “skeleton” of the church will be structural steel, which has been ordered. Expect to see it begin to go up early next year.

We’re thinking ahead to the future:

  • Our brick has been ordered and will be produced in December. The church exterior brick will be a darker color than the current building and will include trim brick that matches our current building.
  • We’ve recently signed a contract for the pews, in order to lock in the price of manufacturing and installation.
  • We’re working with vendors on other interior liturgical requirements (e.g. baptismal font, statuary, etc.). This will be done with an eye on ensuring a seamless, reverent, and beautiful setting worthy of the Eucharist.

The bottom line is that we are still on track to celebrate the opening of the church by Christmas 2024.

Thank you for your continued generosity to the Living Our Faith, Building to Serve capital campaign and the weekly offertory. If you are new to the parish or have not yet participated, now is the perfect time to become involved in this historic effort.

Look for updates via bulletin, website, and social media on the project status and progress on key milestones as we move toward making this vision a reality.

February 21 Update on All Saints Building Project!

Rick Spillane, chair of our New Facilities Committee, shares the latest news about where we are with all our work toward building a new church... AND connecting wings.


Originally presented after Saturday evening Mass on February 11, 2023.

Dennis Murphy of our New Facilities Ministry Team provides a video update on where we are with our work toward building a new church.

The following message from Msgr. Joseph summarizes Dennis' comments:


My dear friends,


I want to provide you an update to our “Living our Faith, Building to Serve” efforts.


We received the cost proposal from the builder for our new church and connecting wing project on January 11th, 2023. Based on current economic conditions, the costs went up from the original quote in March 2022. This was not unexpected. We are currently negotiating with the builder on options for potential cost savings. 


With that said, we will most likely need to ask the Diocese of Raleigh for an increase in the size of our loan. The good news is that we feel our current level of offertory giving is robust enough to support approval of this request.


Our capital campaign is ongoing, with a goal of raising $3.5 million dollars. Meeting our goal will go a long way in closing the cost gap.


It’s important to note that despite these challenges we remain optimistic that we can break ground in the spring of 2023.


Your giving of time, talent, and treasure is extraordinary and reflective of the growing discipleship of the parish.


Finally, please continue to pray for the success of our effort to build a church worthy of the Eucharist.


Monsignor Joseph


Hear from Joe and Colby Roberts about why

their family has made a sacrificial gift to help build our new church in this update on All Saints' Living Our Faith, Building to Serve campaign:


After King David had taken up residence in his house, and the Lord had given him rest from his enemies on every side, the king said to Nathan the prophet, “Here I am living in a house of cedar, but the ark of God dwells in a tent!” -- 2 Samuel 7:1-2


Joe and Colby Roberts have been members of All Saints for several years. In that time, the parish has been their spiritual family, journeying alongside them through tragic loss and through joyful births and baptisms.


While our current building has served the community admirably for years, we now have the opportunity to build and invest in a spiritual home for now and the future.


Thank you, Roberts family, for your sacrificial giving to build a worship space worthy of the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist.

Please join us in prayer for our growth plan!

Play video and the words appear on-screen to pray along with us.

Lord, as we seek to grow your kingdom here on earth, guide us to build a church in accord with your will.


My Dear Friends,

Where there is no vision the people perish, the Book of Proverbs tells us. (Proverbs 29:18a)

All Saints’ vision is to be a welcoming community of faith where parishioners, newcomers, and visitors are spiritually enlivened, engaged, and nourished as we grow as disciples to live a life worthy of the calling we have received. 

In order for us to more effectively fulfill our mission to love God, to love others, and to make disciples, we have set out to expand our facilities with a new church building and meeting spaces. 

We have the vision, and this is our time!

Since launching our Living Our Faith, Building to Serve capital campaign last July, we’ve had more than 519 families who have pledged to donate, with the numbers building daily. We are now just short of our $3.5 million goal.!!! 

With rising costs and inflation, we want to be in the best financial situation possible before starting construction in Spring of 2023. Since time is of the essence, we are asking every household to prayerfully consider a contribution to help us reach our goal before the construction plans are finalized. Every contribution helps, no matter the size. We just want to invite everyone to be a part of this historic plan

Let us remember that the ‘Source and Summit’ of our faith is the Eucharist, communing together as One Body of believers in the Real Presence of our Lord. This is the mystery of our faith. Now, we are called to build a reverent worship space that reflects the importance of God in our midst. With a larger facility and additional meeting spaces, we will be better able to serve as disciples in our community and give back to the Lord for all he has done for us. 

We have been and will continue praying together in order to fulfill this important mission.

We thank you for investing in a spiritual home worthy of the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. 


Peace and joy,

Monsignor Joseph
