    Back to the church!

    10/13/2017

    We have moved one step closer to be completely done with this project!

    The retrofit of the lighting work was completed today, Friday, October 13. EC Ernst worked extra time this week to complete and clean today. Mass will take place in the church Saturday morning.
     
    There is still work to be completed. However, that work will not require a move out of the church.  We are still waiting on some fixtures as well as programming the lighting panel.
     
    We are grateful for our parishioners' financial and prayerful support that has allowed us to upgrade the lighting.
     
    Thank you for your patience during this entire process!  There truly is a light at the end of the tunnel!

    The next phase of the lighting process begins Tuesday, October 10 at 6:00 am. The contractor, EC Ernst, will replace all the ceiling fixtures and install the remaining up-lights.
     
    Daily Mass, beginning with the 6:30pm Mass on Monday, October 9, through the Saturday 9:00am Mass (October 14) will be held in Creedon Hall (Hall #1). 

    Adoration on Wednesday, October 11 and Thursday, October 12 will be held in the Hall.  

    Mr. Binzer's Funeral, Friday, October 13 also will be held in the hall. 

    Confessions will be held in the nursery.
     
    The church (worship space) is a hard-hat area and access is limited to EC Ernst personnel. There is no admittance to the church from the Narthex or from the side entrance (near the statue of Mary). 

    Thank you for your continued patience. The ‘light’ is truly in sight!

    Project Updates for Week of October 2

    10/1/2017

    0 Comments

     
    The next phase of the lighting project will begin on Monday, October 2.

    All Masses will remain in the church the entire week.

    Work schedule and impacts for the week of 
    October 9 have not been finalized. Based on the work that is completed the first week, decisions will be made regarding the second week. In all likelihood, and with a lot of prayer, the work will commence and all daily Masses and Adoration, Confessions, etc, will move out of the church beginning October 9. Hall 1 will be used as the church for the entire week.

    We appreciate the flexibility of parishioners, staff, and volunteers through this process!

    Please keep those working on our project in your prayers!

      We are undertaking an extensive project to renovate the lighting in the main Worship Space. All fixtures will be replaced, and new wiring will be installed. We are looking forward to more energy-efficient and effective lighting!
