| Description: |
The 2002 project was for the parish and
included a 15,000-square-foot, two-story brick addition valued
at $2,050,000. The addition consisted of six new classrooms, a
divisible multi-purpose room, and a new kitchen facility to service
the new multi-purpose room and existing parish center.
The 2004 project for the church was valued at $4,300,000 and
included a new 22,000-square-foot addition plus the complete remodeling
of the existing church. The steeple rises from the center of the
church with a portico constructed at the north entrance for those
being dropped off by car. The entire ceiling was framed with wooden
beams for strength and aesthetics. Some highlights incorporated
into the new addition include the 12 Stations of the Cross embedded
in the floor, a new baptismal, imported Italian marble and stone,
plus six foot diameter stained glass windows depicting the evangelists
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
