Return of Our Lady’s Altar Completes Longed For Restoration

Newly restored, Our Lady’s Altar was returned to its place in the sanctuary last week.

Having all three of its altars restored to their former state has been the fervent desire of many of the faithful and their priests ever since the nascent parish of Saint Clement acquired them in 1984 and thus saved them from certain destruction.

 

Parishioner generosity has made possible the realization of many prayers by ensuring a very successful Side Altar Restoration Campaign. As of the end of December 2020, parishioners had contributed $29,345.00 to the project involving this second side altar which was budgeted at $24,800 (plus applicable taxes). The additional funds received will be directed to other sanctuary restoration work.

The work to restore the side altars was undertaken by Atelier Plantagenêt who in 2019, carried out the restorative treatment of the high altar.

Thank you for your generosity!
