NEW RECTORY

Dear Friends:

We continue to work away at readying the 2125 J St house to be our parish rectory. Many hours of labor, a great deal of individual skills, and donated funds have got us very close to completing this project. It is taking shape very nicely and I expect to be moved in before June 1. The photos that follow will give you some idea of the work being done, and the work yet to do.

If you want to volunteer your labor, there is some general final cleaning and small projects to be done before we are finished. If you want to help but are not able to offer time or labor, your financial help with aspects of the renovation will be most welcome! Contact Nancy Macek (363-1062) for donation details.

Thanks for checking in on our progress!

Fr. Tom McDermott
