The Greenhouse Project
In Honor of the 25th Anniversary of Pastor Fr. John Valencheck's Ordination
The St. Sebastian Parish Foundation, in honor of Fr. Valencheck's 25th Ordination Anniversary, is raising money for the purchase of a new greenhouse for the parish. This new, stately greenhouse will not only enhance our grounds but also provide floral arrangements to beautify our altar. In addition, the new greenhouse will house bulbs and plantings for our cutting garden and for the grounds crew flower gardens. Also, this new greenhouse will be a place to cultivate and winterize plants, bulbs, and greenery that the parish would typically have to throw out or store at parishioners’ houses. As part of this fundraising effort, all of the proceeds from the 2023 #weGiveCatholic appeal were dedicated to the Greenhouse Fund. Parishioners have also received special offertory envelopes designated for the Greenhouse Project.

Annual Christmas Card Appeal
Please consider a gift to the St. Sebastian Parish Foundation during this Christmas Season
Parishioners, school families, alumni, and friends of the parish and school are encouraged to support our parish and school during the holidays with a gift to the St. Sebastian Parish Foundation. Each year, the Foundation sends out a Christmas card featuring images from our beautiful buildings and parish campus. Gifts to the Annual Christmas Card appeal are a critical source of funding for the Foundation’s Unrestricted Fund, which provides support for the areas of greatest need in the parish. Benefactors may also choose to support one of the Foundation's 80+ funds, scholarships and endowments. This year's cover features a kaleidoscope-like picture of students gathered for school Mass at our parish church -- a wonderful image of how God’s love encircles us while we pray and reminds us that there is joy in the presence of the Lord.
