Campus Campaign Update

St. Columba Campus Design – Next Steps

We are excited to report that St. Columba is continuing our preliminary work to move ahead with design plans for Phase 1 of our Master Plan. As a reminder, these campus improvements will include necessary site infrastructure upgrades, a new church narthex, and fire suppression in the Hauser Building.


Work to-date includes pre-application meetings with Durango City Planning, as well as discussion about various consultants needed throughout this process. While we await approval from the Diocese, we will keep you informed with updates as they become available.

Members of our St Columba Campus Design Team (CDT) for this scope of work are:

Mike Bray, Rich Bechtolt, Kevin Chick, Deacon Chris Peterson, Donna Rheault and Father John Jatau.


Living Stones Capital Campaign Update

We are blessed to have received pledges of more than $5.2 million towards the work described above. If you have not already started, please begin fulfilling your pledges to the Living Stones Capital Campaign, as costs for the design work are now beginning. If you have not yet made a pledge, please consider making one to help us meet our $6.2 million goal.

Thank you for your generous response to our facility needs so that St. Columba Church & School can continue our mission of making disciples in SW Colorado.
