Building Together in Faith
Please pray for guidance throughout this project and for all those involved in securing its success.
Drawings of the proposed sketches will be available in the west and east entrances to the church.
Please remember that the sketches are preliminary and interior walls are subject to change.New Amphitheater The Amphitheater "Outdoor Faith Formation" will not be part of the Feasibility Study. It is a donation from an active parishioner. Construction for it will begin immediately. 
Brooks Hall Renovation & Addition The proposal for Brooks Hall is an addition of 6,700 square feet and renovation of the existing space. The renovation will include new windows and HVAC systems, rearrangement of meeting rooms, updated kitchen, and addition of permanent walls and doors. The playground will be upgraded and placed on the east side of the new addition. 
Church Offices, Jordan Hall Renovation/Retrofit, Narthex Enlargement & Annex Retrofit The proposal for the church offices is a full renovation to include new windows, HVAC systems, and a walk through of an east & west Narthex into the Church Sanctuary. In this option, Jordan Hall is consumed by offices and a large meeting space. For the Annex, the Ave Maria Chapel will be increased to include additional seating. This will move the Altar Server and Vesting Rooms to the other side of the main hallway.

Annex Renovation/Retrofit The below image shows a closer view of the Annex Renovation/Retrofit to increase the size of Ave Maria Chapel by moving the vesting rooms to the other side of the main hallway. 
Chapel Addition & Annex Offices The second option reflects a new Chapel added to the Church Sanctuary. It would provide additional seating to the Sanctuary and house a new music room & confessionals. It this second options, the Church Offices would be moved to the west Annex side, allowing Jordan Hall to stay in tact for smaller gatherings and event. The vesting rooms would be moved to the east side. The addition of a new Chapel would increase the amount of the expansion by $1.5 Million. 
Feasibility Study
We are pleased to announce that after months of planning, St. Jerome's Parish will embark on the beginning stage of the Building Together in Faith campaign. In the coming weeks, some families in the parish will receive a letter from Father Ekeocha asking them to participate in a feasibility study with our campaign consultant Tim Gwiazdowski from Greater Mission.
During the process we will be seeking feedback from parishioners relating to the proposed projects and a potential goal. In addition to individual meetings during the feasibility study, we will provide an opportunity for every member of the parish to provide their input via an online survey. Your feedback is important for the planning of this project, and we would welcome your participation and feedback.
