On Wednesday, October 22, two big concrete mixers were at the construction site to pour the foundation for a patio at the rear of the new parish hall. The patio is a conscious effort to bring the church itself nearer to the columbarium where so many former parishioners are interred. It's a physical bridge, as well as building a psychological closeness. In the photograph above, masons are shown working on the "steps" of the patio; the reinforcing rod in the center of the new project will support a retaining wall. The new parish hall is to the right, and the columbarium to the left.
