The parish of St.Patrick has officially launched its church rebuilding campaign under the theme “Rebuilding Church, Reigniting Faith”.
The church building was damaged during the passing of Hurricane Maria in 2017 and parishioners have been using the garage of the presbytery since.
Parish priest Father Brancker John extended an invitation to all to lend a hand to assist in the rebuilding project. He said that the church has outgrown the present location thus it is time to rebuild. He believes that the tenacity of parishioners will push the work.
The building project will be done in eight phases and will cost five million EC dollars. So far the parishioners have raised over four hundred thousand dollars and the insurance contributions will be over 200 thousand.
Lead architect Davidson Julien has included in his plans ideas to mitigate the sea blast and heat which the building receives because of its location. The roof will also be constructed to be Hurricane resistant.
A number of fund raising activities have been planned and it is the hope of all that the building will be re dedicated in three years to mark the 100th anniversary.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
