Week 10 - Objects in Mirror Really ARE Larger than they Appear

This week the Building Committee got its first opportunity to crawl inside the new Parish Center and review the construction progress up close. All agreed that seeing the building up close is very different than viewing the plans on paper!

A representative from Hendrick was on hand to answer committee member's questions about various aspects of the construction. He also pointed out a few interesting finds made by the site crews, including wire-wrapped wooden water mains, and a clay marble that somehow survived excavation.

Pictures from the site review are available in our photo album.

This week, you will likely notice that the fence line for the construction site has been moved again. This is necessary in order to begin the site work required for the new dropoff circle in front of the rectory. As always, we ask for your patience and understanding. We're moving as fast as we can in order to minimize the impact to the parish. In fact, ten weeks into construction, we actually find we're AHEAD of schedule by a day or so.

In other news, the majority of the furniture has now been selected. Fr. Bill met with the firms involved this week to select fabrics and finishes. Next stop: technology, with bids being due at the end of next week.

Have a great week!
