Dear Ministry Leaders,
We are launching a digital Facility Request form effective April 16, 2026. This replaces the previous manual process and will make communication faster and easier for everyone. You can access the new form here: SFDS Facility Request Form.
Here is what to expect:
- Submit your request: The person coordinating your event fills out the online form with all the details needed to review and approve your request.
- Receive confirmation: Once submitted, the coordinator will receive an email confirming the form was received.
- Get your answer: The coordinator will receive an email confirming approval. If a request is not approved, the coordinator will receive an email explaining why.
- Communicate easily: The system also allows coordinators to exchange messages directly with our staff and keep a record of the conversation.
Important: All ministries and outside organizations are required to submit a form for every event and meeting for the full fiscal year (July 1 – June 30). Approvals for the coming year will take place in May. If you have questions about scheduling outside of that window, please contact us directly.
Please also note that a representative from your organization is required to meet annually with Lee Eder to review proper facility care. No events will be approved until this meeting takes place. Lee will be available on the following dates:
- Friday, May 2. 2026 at 9:00 AM
- Friday, May 9, 2026 at 9:00 AM
We appreciate your patience as we make this transition. This new process will help us steward our parish resources well and serve our ministries more effectively.
In His service,
The SFDS Team
