St. George Repairs Costly, Leslie Richardson's article in yesterday's "Republican Herald," reports that estimates for repairs of the church have escalated from 2 million to 9.2 million.
Salient quotes:
"Thursday night, after months of anxious waiting, more than 100 parishioners learned it would cost between $6.1 million and $9.2 million to make necessary renovations for St. George Roman Catholic Church to reopen."
“The diocese can say no, but if we can come up with the $9 million they won’t turn us down,” parishoner Anthony Wysoski said. “This is our heritage. This is our parish. We don’t want to lose this parish. If we have to raise $9 million, we will raise $9 million.”
