Dear Parishioners and Visitors,
During the months of January and February, certain areas of the church building will be under construction. To eliminate trip-and-fall risks, the torn and rippled wall-to-wall carpeting in the nave and the narthex will be replaced. Also, a new pew frontal will be installed that will provide kneelers for those seated in the front pews. This will also provide additional depth to the transept, which will facilitate the distribution of Holy Communion when a bridal party or casket are situated at the juncture of the transept and the center aisle. Of great significance, though, I am happy to report that I have been handed checks from a number of generous donors totaling $30,000, which covers the lion’s share of these projects. While some of these donors wish to remain anonymous at this time, I will publish more about these acts of generosity later.
With thanks and prayerful best wishes,
Fr. John Mahoney
