Catholic Foundation Grant
We are very pleased to announce that Christ the King was awarded a grant from the Catholic Foundation in the amount of $18,600. The grant will be applied to restoring every piece of broken or damaged stained glass throughout our church, including the dome above the main altar! We are very grateful for the Catholic Foundation’s continued generosity to our parish – they have been a tremendous friend to Christ the King for a number of years. We now look forward to the next steps with our stained glass window project.
