The projects in the following pages have been identified by our Building & Grounds Commission made up of local architects, engineers, contractors and finance council members-all of whom are Blessed Sacrament Parish parishioners. They hold the parish dear to their hearts and want what is best for the parish. All of the listed projects would be considered “out of budget” items and would require special funding to complete. NOTHING has to be done IMMEDIATELY. We are simply looking at potential projects for the next 5-10 years.
