Recently, we did an air quality sampling at various locations in the church building and the inspection results showed good air quality. The inspection was done, because the dirty air vents in the church were examined and some mold was found. It is common mold and corrective action will be taken before the air quality deteriorates to an unacceptable level. We are in the process of investigating the best way to clean, sanitize and seal the ductwork and vents to eliminate the issue, understanding what the cost will be, and developing a plan to complete this work before year end.
We also did an air quality test in the parish office, and found elevated spore counts. We are investigating this further to develop a plan that will remove sources of mold and improve the air quality. We are working with the Diocese regarding the best way to proceed. In the interim, the parish office operations will continue, with staff members available to assist parishioners in the Ministry Meeting Room*, during normal office hours (Monday through Thursday 8:30 am to 4 pm). You may also call the office at 859-278-7432 or email staff directly. Meetings will not be allowed in the parish office until further notice.
*The Ministry Meeting Room is located in the Education Life Center (school). Use the door that directly enters into the meeting room. It is located to the left of the outdoor Mary statue.
