St. Bridget Family of Faith was born on December 16, 1911. Next year we will be celebrating 110 years. The present church was built in 1955 out of the generosity and sacrifices of our ancestors.
Our worship space and facilities are overdue for renewal and updating. The key focus will be on the pews and flooring in the nave, the main body of the church.
The pews are original to the church and as such have served for over 60 years. Several pews and kneelers are broken, cracked or simply worn out. In addition, the spacing needs to be adjusted to the current profile of people who use them. This will, therefore, entail the disposal of the present pews and the acquisition of new pews.
In the same vein, the flooring is in need of renewal and updating. the project will entail installing new flooring in the whole church to match the new pews; new wine in new wineskins.
The cost indicated are the best estimate to cover the proposed renovations.
44 Brand new and tailor pews for St. Bridget Church is $100,000
Installation of new flooring in the entire Church is $55,00
Other attendant miscellaneous project to spruce up the church is $20,000
