Construction progress continues at Mary Queen of Peace Church, thanks to your continued generousity. Walls and partitions have been removed, improving traffic flow. Old VCT floors have been removed and replaced by new, modern, epoxy floors. Well, there's a lot more planned, but good things come to those who wait. Below you'll see a few progress photos, with more to come...
PHASE 2B). Altar: New framing and drywall at the front wall, including a high arch. Decorative stone is complete at the lateral areas of the new enclosure, and columnar features have been added with crown moldings almost complete. Altar has also been raised to allow for better congregational visibility, and a Raredos will be added to provide a new decorative foundation for the Tabernacle.
Triple-crown molding and crosses at the top of the side columns were installed!
