As a member of SOP I know what we are doing to keep it there for future generations. But, at times I will sit in SVdP Church and just "sigh." The beautiful woodwork, stained glass windows, and statues WITH the Tabernacle in the center of the sanctuary. For the feast day, I was at SM for the school mass, which was very nice. Again, I noticed the beautiful stained glass and the artful paintings on the wall BUT a very big difference...plaster is just falling down. It looks down right awful.<br /><br />We have a monthly collection for "parish improvements" (which really shouldn't be called that since we are still a 3 church parish but our PA has stated he will only make improvements on one church -- hence it should be a "St. Mary Church Improvement" collection) what do we do with that money? Could we please fix the plaster in St. Mary's -- it is God's house afterall.Marynoreply@blogger.com
