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.. About Alden Vixie
