St. Elias Capital Campaign Pledge and Gift Intention Card

Our Mission:

The St. Elias Capital Campaign is more than just a fundraising effort—it is a historic opportunity to strengthen our community and secure the future of our church. Through strategic planning, collaboration, and execution, we will fund, design, and build a space that serves generations to come.

Please give prayerful consideration to the commitment you are making. Participating in building a new temple is a unique opportunity to bring the presence of Christ in a greater way to our own parish community and the people of Austin and the surrounding areas.

Our sacrificial giving back to God what He has blessed us with is most meaningful when accompanied by your presence, by your willingness to serve, by your prayers, and by your commitment. Giving is not a substitute for commitment – it is an expression of your commitment and an expression of thanks for the many blessings in your life.
