A view of our restored church with marble foyer floor, new lighting, and new wood church floor beyond. Pew installation planned for Thursday this week.

Church opening begins on the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima, October 13th with adoration and opportunity for confession at 6 pm followed by holy Mass at 7 pm. 

Forty Hours devotion also begins that evening. Sign up to take part in adoration at this Sign Up Genius link: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080D4DABA72BA5F94-sfds

Our church is located at 7185 Benedict Avenue, Benedict, Maryland 20612.–

The plaster and painting crew completed work today. The ceiling is a very light shade of blue, wall color a bone or beige and wainscoting brick. Trim is gray. Chandeliers are new. Additional narthex, entrance and sacristy retro lighting secondhand.
The floor goes in next, to which tung oil is applied followed by a period for curing of up to a month before we can move back in. Thanks to our benefactors for generous financial gifts and prayer. We plan to return for the first Mass in our restored church on October 13th.
