The wooden floor by the stairs leading to the church was in very bad shape. The Parish Committee hired The CSC Services, Woodland Park to remove the floor and to install the vinyl tiles. In addition to that, mold from the nearby walls was cleaned and the walls were treated with new paint. We thank CSC Services for their job well done and Dominick Bucci for making all arrangements.
