Hello Resurrection Parishioners,
 
Here is an update for both Churches:
 
St. John Capistran
 
Currently, two of the three roofs have been fixed. Unfortunately, as the roofers were working on the roof under the bell tower, they uncovered serious structural issues with a beam. As you might have seen along the McMillan side of the   building, the beam has rotted away. We are working with the diocese and a structural engineer to see what our options are to get this repaired. As of now, getting Capistran Hall renovations done are on a temporary hold until we get the beam fixed. We are not sure what the cost will be to repair the beam. When I get an answer I will let you know. One additional suggestion is to replace the tile roof on and under the bell tower with a metal roof, in the hope that this will prevent damage caused by ice slabs that fall from the bell tower and crack the roof. 
 
St. Thomas More
 
The electrical panel project is on hold. The manufacturer of the panels we need is delayed 8-12 weeks. We will update you once the electricians have the materials they need. 
 
We are still resolving issues with the baptismal font railing. We anticipate this project being completed soon. 
 
The Knights of Columbus will be having their meetings here at Resurrection Parish. In return they will be helping us here at Resurrection to get things fixed up at both church campuses. 
 
We have finally fixed the handicap door on the breezeway fountain side. This repair was $8,500. There were issues with the latch not opening when the handicap button was pressed.
 
We are looking into replacing the Narthex doors. There are issues with the doors closing properly and cold air is getting into the Narthex during the winter. We are currently getting estimates to get both doors replaced. 
 
We are in the process of planning to move the Parish Library from the Family Life Center to the front half of the Rooney Room so parishioners have easier access to it from the church.
 
Blessings,
