St. Mary’s Church Roof Restoration Fundraiser
Help Us ‘Raise the Roof’
For over 140 years, St. Mary’s Church has stood as a symbol of faith, community, and history in Drogheda. Perched at the top of James’ Street, this iconic gothic building has been a place of worship, celebration, remembrance, and community gathering. Now, we need your help to ensure it remains a beacon for generations to come.
The roof of St. Mary’s Church has faithfully sheltered countless events, prayers, and milestones since the 1880s. However, after over a century of service, the roof slates are showing their age. Despite extensive restoration in the 1940s, urgent repairs are now required to secure the building’s future.
• Goal: Raise €500,000 for the full restoration of the Church roof.
• Why It Matters: Without these critical repairs, the Church’s ability to serve as a center of worship, culture, and community is at risk.
Why St. Mary’s Matters
St. Mary’s contribution to the wider community of Drogheda and the Diocese of Meath and Armagh extends beyond our life as a centre of Christian worship. It is host to all manner of events and activities from dancing to samba. People may hire the parochial hall for meetings and other activities. St. Mary’s is a place where people come to pray, to be married, to baptise their children or be baptised themselves, to say farewell to and celebrate the lives of those who have passed.
Groups of pupils from many local schools visit in the course of the year for class masses, communion or confirmation preparations. The Church is also widely used to learn about the rich history of Drogheda or be shown around the vibrant Church and relish in its beautiful interior, including renowned stained-glass windows which also gathers much tourism for the wider area.
How You Can Help
Join our ‘Family-Remembrance-Slate’ Campaign to help restore the roof while leaving a lasting legacy.
Sponsor a Slate: Each sponsorship brings us closer to our goal and preserves the Church for future generations.
Virtual Roof Map: Your name, or the name of a loved one, will be featured on our Virtual Roof Map, displayed on the Church’s website throughout the restoration project.
A Lasting Legacy: Contributions ensure St. Mary’s remains a cornerstone of Drogheda’s community and history.
Spread the Word
Even if you can’t donate, you can help us by spreading the word! Share our fundraiser with friends, family, and neighbors to help us reach our goal.
Let’s work together to preserve this vital part of Drogheda’s heritage and ensure St. Mary’s Church continues to stand as a testament to faith, community, and history.
