This is the second rack of vestments that were damaged or not properly cleaned. The cleaners will pick these up and “re-clean” them before we declare them a loss. There are also 13 boxes of albs and vestments that they declared “unsalvageable.” They biggest job right now is the sorting and inventorying the damaged vestments for the claim.
St. Ann’s Altar Guild and several other willing ladies are spending the next few days ironing the vestments that were successfully cleaned. Wednesday morning after Tom Reillo’s bible study a group of volunteers and I will be sorted the damaged vestments and trying to assess exactly what we lost. (Anyone interested in helping can join us in the parish hall around 10:15.)
The final bids on the roof repair are scheduled to be here on Thursday and the property management people from the diocese assure me that the insurance company will approve a contractor by the end of the week. Once the roof is complete, the rest of the renovation should not take too terrible long.
The working group has contracted an architectural firm to help with the sound, lighting and design. As soon as we have anything from them, I will share it with you. We will also share our list of proposed improvements.
