St. Paul the Apostle
Summer 2026 Church Renovations
Throughout the summer the flooring in the Nave, Chapel and other spaces of the church, is being replaced. This is the final project of our One Heart, One Soul Campaign. It is through the generosity of our parishioners during that campaign that sufficient funds were raised to replace the current flooring with new tile floors that will brighten and modernize the space. We thank all who contributed to this special campaign.
The main sanctuary, sacristies, Sacred Heart of Jesus candle chapel, St. Michael the Archangel Chapel, Conference room and Children's Liturgy room will all be refloored. This is a big undertaking requiring the removal of all pews from the sanctuary to complete the work there. We will provide updates via photos posted on this page.
