- build a new maintenance shop and
- purchase two (2) liftsA maintenance shop, as originally envisioned and laid out in the master plan for our St. William campus, would provide a:
✅ Safe work environment for the facilities team, particularly during extreme weather conditions.
✅ Centralized, secure and temperature -controlled space to house equipment
✅ Savings for the parish over time
Our facilities team plays an essential role in the life and ministry of our church. From preparing spaces for worship and ministry events, to caring for our buildings and grounds, their behind-the-scenes work enables everything we do.

Last updated:
February 8, 2026All funds raised during the Capital Campaign period (May 16, 2025-May 16, 2026) will not be taxed by the Diocese of Austin.
This means that if the full $700,000 is raised during this period, approx. $70,000 would remain with our parish and applied to project costs.
