SEAS PARISH
MASTER PLAN
Our
Unique Role
St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish is an important part
of the Kenner community. It maintains an ongoing
positive relationship with civic leaders. Our Parish
serves as a cornerstone for the quality of life of
our area. Many families considering moving to Kenner
are looking for an appropriate place to worship and
excellent schools. The proposed relocation of St.
Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish and School will increase
all aspects of service to the Kenner area.
The Challenge
As membership in the congregation grows, St.
Elizabeth Ann Seton is outgrowing its current land
and facilities. Building on the current site would
not enable our church and school community to
provide for our anticipated growth. We need more
space, quality space, and dedicated space.
The Solution
We are moving to a new location at the corner of
Loyola Drive and Joe Yenni Boulevard. This 18-acre
site provides all the space we need for our plans.
We will build a traditional church building that
will seat 900, designed with the ability for future
expansions. We will have a state-of-the-art school
that will allow us to increase enrollment and
provide quality space for specialized instruction.
This relocation to a more central site in our Parish
will enhance all we do in service to our community.
The Goals
We are seeking $12 million in philanthropic support
for this project. We anticipate receiving $3 million
from the sale of our current land. This will enable
us to relocate our church and school, as well as
upgrade and expand all of our facilities, add new
facilities, and provide for increasing participation
in the life of the St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish
community.
How You Can Help
We are seeking long-term pledges that reflect a true
spirit of generosity and commitment to St. Elizabeth
Ann Seton. Be a positive giver and support the
program financially. Your generosity will encourage
others to follow. All gifts to SEAS building
campaign are tax deductible as a charitable
contribution. Using gifts of appreciated property or
stocks may be a great way to support the campaign
and reduce your tax burden at the same time. We
welcome gifts to the campaign in memory of a loved
one. You may track our progress via regular updates
in the parish and school bulletins. Discuss the
program with your fellow parishioners and pray for
its success.
Contact the Church Office for more
information and to obtain the Guide for Giving and
Pledge Statement forms. The campaign will only
succeed if all of us work together for a common
vision of our church, our school, and our community.
