House for Catholic Priests

Work has progressed well on the house for the Catholic priest on a site just below St Joseph’s church.

The parishioners of St Joseph’s helped by some other members of the community had the wooden framework for the roof put up on May and the roof went on the following day. Luckily two fine days in a row enabled the work to be completed. The ladies of the church kept the men supplied with tea, coffee, cakes and sandwiches on both days. Many thanks to all who contributed to the work getting done so quickly and to the ladies who supplied the eats and drinks.  

During the past week the windows have been fitted and work is progressing on the interior.
