Financial Support

Support the future of Saint John The Evangelist Catholic Church

Saint John’s is a beautiful old church.  It is a gem in the heart of Center City, but old churches need constant repairs.   We maintain the beauty and usefulness of our church by immediately addressing roof, plumbing, electrical and other issues.  But all of this costs money. The Historic Preservation Fund exists so that we can always  make necessary repairs and improvements when there is a need.  An ordinary donation supports the work and ministry of Saint John’s.  A gift to the Historic Preservation Fund maintains Saint John’s for the future.   One is a gift that supports Saint John’s now.  The Historic Preservation Fund is an investment in Saint John’s long term future.

Historic Preservation Fund

$583,266.60 (as of September 25, 2025)

Includes interest and dividends

Thanks you,
Father Tom, pastor and the Finance Committee.
