We’re Making Progress!

November 14, 2016 by Kurt 4 Comments

Here’s a photo of the progress in the chapel.  As you can see the side walls that will hold up the new vaulting are in place.  The workers aren’t exactly monastic in their silence but they do work hard.  Not sure the monks ever expected to hear Beyoncé on the radio in the chapel…

If you would like to contribute to the renovation program please call me  at 540-486-5674 (note new phone number) or on my mobile phone at 617-962-6220.   I can also be reached at companions@virginiatrappists.org…

Also our friends are reminded we are worshiping in the Chapter Room and there is VERY LITTLE space, so please for the time being make other arrangements for mass.

I will keep you updated as construction continues.

    Do you all have an architect’s rendition of what things will look like at the end of all the demolition and creation?

        AND our Fall newsletter is almost in the mail; you should receive it next week…It includes a nice story about the renovation of the church and a rendering of what it’s going to look like when done.

    The Chapter Room is literally next to the chapel. When you arrive you will see the direction to enter through the house on the right of the chapel (facing it)…be reminded, the Chapter Room is very very small…you might find the room too crowded to get in for Sunday Mass.
