      The Campaign for St. Ignatius Parish is a once-in-a-generation fundraising effort to maintain a San Francisco Institution, and help it thrive as a dynamic Catholic parish today.

      The Projects.

      Learn more below about how the Preservation & Promise Campaign will preserve our historic building, and help our parish lead our ministries well into the 21st century. 

    • A Generational Endeavor
      It's Our Turn

      Our campaign has two key aims. First, we must complete an unprecedented Preservation effort to address the slow, weather-related damage to the church’s exterior that will critically threaten the building’s structural integrity if left unaddressed. Secondly, we aim to invest in the programs, leaders, tools and technology that willnurture the faith lives of all who come through our doors for years to come.

  • What Your Gift Preserves
    our turn to preserve

    • Funds for interior  projects will allow us to:

       
      • Restore all church windows and skylights,                      including stained glass windows  
      • Build additional restrooms and other upgrades to make our building more accessible to all  
      • Install a state-of-the-art fire alarm system  
      • Begin urgent restorations to the church organ  
      • Restore church pews and replace kneelers.



       








    • Funds for urgent exterior renovations will allow us to:

      • Restore and repair wear and damage to the cladding on the church’s spires, roofing and masonry  
      • Replace completely the building’s exterior lighting systems to fully illuminate the church. 
    • An Inside Look at the Damage
      our Turn to preserve

      Take a look through some of the lesser visited regions of the church to see the damage that needs to be addressed.

    • A San Francisco Legacy
      Our History of preservation & Promise

      Our magnificent church is the legacy of a dynamic and continuous Jesuit presence in San Francisco from the city’s earliest days. Each generation of our community has adapted, persevered, and bequeathed a rich heritage that we honor, while adapting to be a light to our community in our own time.
       

  • The Ministry Your Gift Promises
    our promise to innovate

    • Funds  for ministry and innovation will allow us to:

      • Strengthen our advocacy and direct service to “the least of our sisters and brothers” (Matthew 25)
      • Endow funds for Faith Formation and Social Ministry, allowing us to hire a new Director of Social Ministry to coordinate our ministries and form key local, regional and global partnerships 
      • Fund innovative new programs and spaces for more effective outreach to our community 
      • Comprehensively upgrade our hardware and software platforms to meaningfully integrate our “virtual parishioners.”
    • Throughout the course of the global Covid-19 pandemic, despite the challenges of providing health and security in the church, access to worship and ministries online, and administration of sacramental rites to parishioners, St. Ignatius was able to come together as a parish to provide nearly all of these, with the help and guidance of the Holy Spirit.

    • A Dynamic Parish
      our promise to innovate

      During the Covid-19 pandemic, St. Ignatius Church has striven to provide a spiritual lifeline to parishioners both here in the Bay Area, while offering digital services and ministries to people across America and around the world. Here are some highlights from the past year.

    • “Whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.” 
       2 Corinthians 9:6-9
