Dear Friends of Our Lady of Victory Church!

I am writing to share an exciting development with you regarding our beloved church's musical heritage. As you may know, our current pipe organ console, after 37 years of faithful service, is in need of replacement. Therefore, we are thrilled to announce the launch of our Pipe Organ Project Fundraiser! 

In the first phase of this project, we will be replacing our aging organ console and switching system with a state-of-the-art model built by the Viscount Organ Company of Mondaino, Italy. Phase I also includes replacing cotton coated wiring, and an inspection of every note of the pipe organ (all 1500 pipes) to make sure that all pipes are playing properly. Overseeing the entire project will be Viscount Organs of Michigan (Allen Park, MI) and assisted by Fowler-Hebert Organ Company (Eaton Rapids, MI). The total cost for Phase I is $207,018.

We are turning to our parish community for support in making this dream a reality. We are gratefully accepting donations to help fund the Pipe Organ Project. You can contribute by using the designated "Pipe Organ Project" envelopes available in the gathering space (Envelopes can be dropped off in the offertory collection bin in the gathering space.) or by visiting our parish website and selecting the "OLV Pipe Organ Project" fund. Alternatively, you can use the QR code provided.

Our goal is to raise the necessary funds to cover the entire Phase I of the project. Any additional funds raised beyond $207,018 will be allocated towards Phase II (New blower and main/static reservoir, $17,000) and Phase III (Physical repairs to several ranks of pipes. This cost is on a time & materials basis.) of the project, ensuring that our pipe organ remains a source of joy and inspiration for generations to come.

Your support, no matter the size of your contribution, will play a crucial role in preserving our musical tradition and enhancing the worship experience at Our Lady of Victory Church. We are deeply grateful for your generosity and commitment to our church.

Thank you for considering this important appeal. Together, we can ensure that our church continues to be a place of beauty and worship for all.
