MAINTENANCE UPDATE
The lighting for our new sign is almost complete. The cracked baptistery windows have been repaired. The front edge of the church roof, or fascia, has been evened in limestone color since repairs were made to the concrete. Along with the repairs and tuckpointing done last year to the pillars and baptistery, this almost completes the renovation of the front of the church. Our picnic funds are important to undertake projects like these.
