MAGNIFIQUE is the word that best describes the new St Patrick's Catholic Church. It was designed with the new lit urgy of the church in mind so there will be a closer partici nation of the mass. There is no mass rail to separate the nave and the sanctuary. It is as open as possible. The acous tics are splendid. The new building has been wrapped around the rectory in to one building in a most clev er way. Entry Entry into the narthex is made through double glass doors through courts from Gale St., as well as from the Church's parking lot. The two courts ex tend deep into the building so that the narthex is in the cen ter of the building. Occupying a prominent place close to the entry is the baptismal fount. The split nave (where the con gregation sits) will seat 400. The arched beams, the intricate win dows and the tall reredos add to the grandeur and opencss of the entire room. The massive pews are beautiful finished oak. The people of the parish have done the interior painting in a bronze with green overtones that blend so very well with the moss green -gold carpeting that extends throughout the en tire building. There is cove lighting throughout the main, part of the church. Two supports on the reredos (a wall behind an altar) have been built for statuary from the old church. The altar is to the front of the Ranctuary and the priest will face his congrega tion which is part of the new liturgy. There is a service area be hind the reredos for flower ar ranging. Memorial Windows Used Just off the narthex is the ushers' room. Here the architect has used two memorial stained glass leaded windows from the old church. Those in memory of Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Fitzpat rick. The ushers' room will al so double as a family room dur ing funerals and as a place for mothers of small children dur ing mass. Off from the ushers' room is the Sacristy (a room in a church where sacred utensils and vestments are kept). The priest will go from tho Sacristy past the congregation to the sanctuary which is again part of the closer participation of the mass. Meeting Room Off the Gale St. court is the meeting room. This has a fire place with a raised marble hearth, rest room and a kitch enette. Carpeted stairs lead from the narthex up to the former front porch of the rectory and into the rectory now enclosed by the new church building. Many hands have made light the work of the last few days. Men have leveled, shoveled and swept the front grounds and walk. The women have cleaned all the marks off the wood work and cleaned up and picked up. All was in readiness for the very special evening on Wednes day..
