In March of 2019, a subcommittee of the parish finance council and parish pastoral council finalized a draft budget for the restoration of St Anne Church. This was a Master Plan, taking into consideration the interior and exterior needs for repair and restoration. The plan, including budget and sketches, was presented to the parish on July 26, 2019, to overwhelming excitement. Funding in the amount of $4-$5 million was needed if were to pursue the plan in it's entirety.
In April of 2022, the parish contracted with Veterans Scaffolding and Inspired Ornamental, LLC began inspection of the plaster ceiling. For the next six months they worked to restore and repair about 50% of the ornate plaster ceiling at a cost of about $650,000. Our restoration was well underway.
Please see the slide show and video to the left for the recreation of two new Corbels identical to the originals. This is just a small piece of the project. To continue our restoration the fundraising is an ongoing process, and we hope you can join us with a generous gift. After the slide show, please see the details on our "2025 Pledge"
