RECTORY BASEMENT WATERPROOFING AND MOLD REMOVING

From the Pastor, Parish Life, St. Valentine /

I continue working on the rectory basement. All infected by black mold wall panels and framing had been removed already. The walls were sprayed with Clorox and mold control solution which eliminates the stench, then painted twice with drylok making the original foundations and walls waterproofed. Patrik helped me to replace partially and seal the sewage pipe. Thank you, Patrik.

Now I rebuild the framing and walls. There is still a new basement window needed and some air vents to make the basement ventilated and dry.

CEMETERY TREES TRIMMED IN THE CENTER AISLE

Events, From the Pastor, Parish Life, Philadelphia, St. Valentine /

Thank you Leon for sponsoring the trees cutting at St. Valentine’s Cemetery. Two crews were working two days on this project last week.

Many tombstones were at risk of damage during storms and windy days, therefore Leon decided to prevent it and hired professionals to save people and graves from this danger. Leon, may God bless you for your generosity. Thank you that you really care.

Therefore, on Saturday, starting 8 AM we are going to clean up all the damaged trees. Please come, whoever can come. Every pair of hands is valuable even if you can only pick up branches. Bring work gloves with you. There will be lunch and water available for all who work.  Please also check if the grave of your beloved ones is ok.
