Holy Family Parish consists of approximately 145 families, the majority of which are seniors on fixed income. Located on Table Rock Lake, the Church provides religious services for a large tourist base during the boating season. Mass attendance doubles during tourist season and triples on some Sundays. Additionally, parish membership has more than tripled in the past 20 years.
Our building project was undertaken to provide a separate
area for worship and social gatherings plus
increase worship area space to meet growing parish needs.
We have added a beautiful new Church to the existing structure and will use
the original
facility for social events. Construction began September 12, 2003 and new
Church Dedication was April 13, 2004.
Though the Parish was able to save a substantial amount of money over many years, our funds are nearing depletion. Therefore, we are asking for your help.
Currently, there is a fund raising campaign underway. Any donations to help us fulfill our commitment would be greatly appreciated.
