Faith in Action
OUR GOAL: $103,000 in Year 1
St. Francis Xavier Parishioners, Families, and Friends,
Faith in Action is more than a slogan. It is what our parish has been doing in Junction City since 1867, and what our school has been doing since 1871. It is also the call we are making to you this year.
This year, we are launching the St. Xavier's Annual Appeal and asking every member of our community to take part.

Tuition does not cover the cost of educating a child at St. Francis Xavier School. It never has. Every Catholic parish with a school subsidizes its school, and our parish has done so generously for more than 150 years. Today, our subsidy runs at about double what the Diocese of Salina recommends.
To keep St. Francis Xavier strong, for the parish and for the school, we need a new source of support. The Annual Appeal is that source.
Your gift to the Annual Appeal helps fund what every parishioner counts on: faith formation, the sacraments, our school classrooms, our teachers, our youth and family programs, and the church and grounds we all share. It strengthens the work we already do together.

Together, we form disciples.
Together, we educate for eternity.
Together, we put faith into action.
WHY THE ANNUAL APPEAL MATTERS
|
Your gift to the Annual Appeal supports the full life of St. Francis Xavier Parish:
|
Tuition does not cover the cost of Catholic education.
Without the Annual Appeal, we lose support for our teachers. Without the Annual Appeal, we lose support for our programs. Without the Annual Appeal, tuition rises, and parish resources are strained. Your gift is tax-deductible. Tuition is not. |
