Elevator Updates:
Thank you for your patience on the Elevator Project. There have been a lot of details, and still are things to be done. This week, we were working on the replacement of the Taylor Street door with a new, wider doorway. We thank Mateus Costa and Sergio Martinez for constructing the temporary cover for the doorway!
Eventually we will have a ramp and handicap – push button accessibility – to the elevator. The step that was worn down will be leveled with clear epoxy. The Elevator is scheduled to be inspected on November 20th . So we hope to have use of the Elevator for Christmas – keep praying!
Our Lady of Divine Providence
We would like to extend a warm invitation to the novena in honor of our Mother, Mary, Mother of the Divine Providence. It will begin on Friday, November 14th, and culminate with a grand celebration in the church with the Holy Rosary and Holy Mass on Sunday, November 23rd, beginning at 9:20 a.m. This will be followed by a community gathering in Msgr. Butler Hall. We will have sheets available with the schedule and times for the rosaries during the novena. We also have forms where you can register your name and your donations of refreshments for this celebration. For donations, please contact Maria del C. Rodriguez @ 484-767-5160.
