St. Cecilia’s construction ‘miracle’

December 23rd, 2009 by tristan baurick

In just six months, Saint Cecilia’s congregation raised $5.5 million to make their parish a better place. Most of the money came out of the congregation’s own pockets.

It might just be a “miracle,” said St. Cecilia’s Father Emmett Carroll.

Now the congregation is starting to see what their money is buying. This week marked the halfway point in the construction of the parish’s new 23,000-square-foot building. A construction crew celebrated the benchmark by installing a Christmas tree on the building’s roof.

For photos of the tree installation and bit more about St. Cecilia’s new building and the old barracks it replaces, click here.
