Dear Friends and Parishioners,
The work on our church dome has resumed this week with much noticeable progress.
CES crew took off the composition shingles on the four gables around the dome and then made the first application of foam similar to TPO, Thermoplastic Polyolefin .
The crew will apply another coat of insulation to the dome followed by layers of product and paint. Once done, there will be many layers of material with a great insulation factor followed by a smoothed exterior dome.
We launched the “Raise the Roof Fundraiser" with a goal of $200,000 to help offset the cost not covered by the insurance. We are currently at $44,349 or 22.17% of our goal.
Together, through your generosity, we change lives, do God’s work and preserve the beauty of Our Lady’s Parish. Let us "raise our hands to this good work… ". Make a gift today!
Chorbishop Don J. Sawyer, D. Min.
