Artistic Rendering of the Sanctuary and Shrines

Dear Friends,

It was just about this time last year that we reentered the church after several weeks of closure to see the beautiful new pews and flooring. It was such a feeling of joy. As we continue our commitment to care for our worship space, I am once again excited to announce the next phase of our church renovation!

This phase includes decorative painting and refurbishment in our sanctuary and shrines, painting of the church ceiling, and installation of a new, hand-painted crucifix. The design will complement the existing colors and patterns in the church. This will be a beautiful transformation that will illuminate the sacred mysteries we celebrate and proclaim.

We are launching a capital campaign to raise $125,000 to complete this project and I ask you to help us reach our goal! We are already off to a fantastic start having received $30,000 from a generous parish family!

Gifts can be made through Faith Direct, check or cash. Checks can be made to the parish with 'Church Renovation' in the memo. Pink envelopes will also be available in the church.

All gifts to the campaign are withheld from diocesan assessments. Any remaining funds after the project's completion will be reserved for future capital improvements.

The sanctuary work is expected to last about three weeks. The painting of the main church ceiling is expected to begin in the New Year. We do not anticipate any interruption of our regular Mass schedule although we expect Eucharistic Adoration on Wednesdays to be cancelled.

May the Holy Spirit guide our work so that we may glorify our Lord and His Eucharistic presence in our church!

In Christ,

Father David Harris
