Love One Another Capital Campaign 2021


St. Robert, Shorewood


Our Parish Roots

St. Robert Parish was incorporated in 1912 in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee with the first Mass being celebrated in a small wooden building. St. Robert School was opened two years later with four grades and was staffed by Dominican Sisters of Sinsinawa, Wisconsin until 2002. Monsignor Farrel P. Reilly was the founding pastor and served until his death in 1958. Father Enrique Hernandez currently serves as the ninth pastor at St. Robert Parish. St. Robert is a pillar in Shorewood with 850 parish families serving the local community through ministries and service, and over 300 students are enrolled at St. Robert School. Together, the people of St. Robert congregation, work to respond to God's call and are committed to the wellbeing of our parish and wider community.

Our Vision

Our vision at St. Robert Parish is to create a safe and welcoming environment where our vibrant parish community can gather in faith. While abundant in fellowship, ministries and service, our church and school have been neglected in other areas. We have immediate infrastructural needs that must be addressed and we recognize that now is the moment to invest in the future of our parish. St. Robert Parish is launching a capital campaign, in partnership with the Archdiocese of Milwaukee, that will improve our facilities to engage with our existing parish families and build the foundation to continue to grow. We aspire to provide exceptional hospitality at St. Robert to retain and increase our faithful community. St. Robert Parish is committed to building a sustainable future for generations to come.

  CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS - $542,884

We are blessed to have a beautiful building where we come together as a parish family to celebrate the Eucharist, pray and continue God’s work in and around New Berlin. In order to continue to be good stewards of our house of worship, we will use the money raised from the campaign for a number of capital improvement projects. This includes an upgrade to our building security, updating the external and internal locks to be made keyless, and installing security cameras around our complex. In the parish interior, we will replace the 40 year old carpeting and chairs in Sippel hall, potentially update the cabinets and appliances in our lower level kitchen, and possibly convert the lower level into a multipurpose area with office, classroom, and meeting spaces. Finally on the exterior, funds will be used to resurface the silo behind our complex.

  MISSION AND MINISTRY - $300,000

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton proudly supports Notre Dame Middle School in Milwaukee with volunteer labor and donations. The parish would like to provide high school scholarships for students in need of financial assistance. In addition, our parish would like to supplement our parishioner’s generosity with a grant program to benefit the various charities that they support.
