St. Leonard Catholic Church, Muskego

Our Parish Roots

St. Leonard Catholic Church & School is a vibrant parish of more than 1,900 families in the heart of Muskego. We have always been a Catholic community empowered through the Holy Spirit to love God and to grow in the image of Jesus Christ through worship, formation, and community.

Our parish faith journey began in 1957, when St. Leonard Congregation was incorporated to serve the many families moving to the Muskego area. The one multipurpose building constructed then included the church and classrooms.

Thanks to the grace of God and the continued strong support of parishioners, we’ve experienced amazing growth since then! In 1980, a new church and enlarged school facilities were dedicated. We’ve also added a large gymnasium and our welcoming Parish Center – including our popular Gathering Space since the year 2000. Our well-maintained facilities position us well to live our mission.

We hope and pray St. Leonard can continue to make disciples of Jesus for many, many years to come!

Our Share

Through much prayer, planning, and conversation, we have identified our greatest needs and initiatives to strengthen our mission and vision for years to come. Our share of the funds raised will be used to replace the gym roof and HVAC system, renovate the school bathrooms, restore and resurface the parking lot, and refurbish the church pews.

Gym Roof and HVAC Units - $375,000

The St. Leonard Gym was constructed in 2002; it is hard to believe that it is already 20 years old. The Buildings and Grounds committee has had an independent firm evaluate the condition of the leaky roof, and found that it is at the end of its projected life and will need replacement within 5 years. It has also been recommended that the roof-top HVAC units be replaced, due to ongoing issues over the past 8 years.

School Restrooms - $320,000

The school restrooms were built in 1957 and with the exception of the stall dividers and sinks, very few updates have been made. The bathroom fixtures are over 60 years old and need complete replacement in order to be 100% ADA compliant.

Parking Lot Restoration - $400,000

The main parking lot was resurfaced in 2008, but poor subsoil conditions on our property have resulted in significant cracking and deterioration over time. Therefore, we will need to undertake extensive grade rehabilitation measures to mitigate the poor subsoil conditions and then resurface the entire parking area.

Refurbishing the Pews - $36,686

The pews in our worship space are original from the construction of the church in 1980. The veneer is peeling, the finish is worn, and the kneelers need to be replaced or recovered in various locations. This will be an ongoing effort to enhance worship experience, and preserve our church for the future.
