What makes the building committee the authority on whether we should build new facilities?
The building committee is certainly no authority on church buildings. However, they are 14 people who have volunteered and committed to a 3-5 year project and have spent much of the last two years trying to study and understand the needs of our parish community and how to meet those needs within liturgical guidelines. The committee has prayed and reflected on what is best for the future of Saint Cecilia’s parish community and is striving to continue as we are led by the Holy Spirit. We know we need to embody a parish that will speak to the youth and future generations of our community. The committee has hired a liturgical consultant to better educate itself and the parish concerning how our worship space should be configured.
