FUND RAISING PROJECT: Granite for the Sanctuary: 75-45-1

We launched a new fund raising project last Sunday. The goal is to have 75 sponsors of Php 4,500 each in 1 month. The money will be used for the re-tiling of the sanctuary, from the old marble to Italian granite. Individual parishioners have been contributing for the project. Some in cash, some in cheque, some in pledges. We've also received a donation from the Stewardship program of the diocese. It is not yet clear how many square meters are already sponsored. May be after a week we can already do that.

We have already ordered the granite slabs that will be used. It seems the demand is high so we need to secure the slabs we need in order to complete the project. The slab should be delivered anytime tomorrow.

We hope to start removing the old marble before Sunday this week. Work on the slabs should also start before Sunday.

Please continue to support our fund raising project so that we can have a newly re-tiled sanctuary before August in time for our Parish Novena and Parish Fiesta. Salamat.
