Saint Wendelin, Fostoria, OH
Notice the cupolas from the former Church structure. Now we have protection from the rain, better access to parking and dropping off, a gathering space, a large room for Fellowship with Kitchen, a long wide hall with offices, bathrooms and library and coat hanging for everyone. Handicap accessable! The attached convent for more rooms for activities and a over the top organ in the worship space.
Both our Parish and the one I posted from Tiffin, OH are in a county with higher unemployment than the Parish in the next county. But we have a refurbishment (St. Mary’s) and a new Church structure (here.) My county has had consolidations, and there are other refurbished Churches in our county which repainted (brought back) the old murals. Notably All Saints, formerly Saint Boniface, which now also includes 2 chapels, which were formerly Parish Churches: Saint Nicholas and Saint Peters. Masses are held at the chapels. I know that the interiors could be called beautiful; they date back to the early 1800s.
PS Steady stream of converts at St. Wendelin, amazing huh! I consider that anyone who dislikes this Church structure is likely envious. People come from other Parishes, sometimes, to attend. It is favored by the Priests, it is active, and we have 2 Priests, not too long ago 3. Bishop Baker’s hometown, but the not during the time of the new building. It is very practical. The gardeners are very busy with a multitude of flowers, a new outdoor statue of the Holy Family donated. Humorously, the maker of the stained class goofed on a major window - the Resurrection, and, that bugs me.
