Reading the note today about St. Joseph. Is anybody old enough to remember that when the new church was built, a major bean fell in the sanctuary? A very scary day! And btw, who was the architect? Have researched and cannot find.

Just as a heads up to any parisoners who were unaware- all masses and confessions will be at Christ The Good Shepherd Chapel for now, and the adoration chapel is set to reopen next week. No timeliness on the church reopening, as they have to have it looked at by structural engineers.

Edit to add: read the story itself, the headline is misleading.
Thanks Histag.

When did it fall? Lucky the kids weren't in there.

Not one joke about destroying the temple?
That's a bit misleading of a headline. None of the Easter masses were going to be at the main church anyways- they were all scheduled for Christ The Good Shepherd.
I'll edit my earlier post.
It wasn't a beam that fell. It was the fascia board covering the beam.

I saw the pic of the beam and the fascia board that fell. It still would have seriously hurt someone (or several) if there were people inside when it happened.
We will chalk it up to God's providence.

Current church was built in 1958. Renovations on the ceiling were completed a few years ago.
The parish is 150 years old, if you are wondering.

The roof was renovated a few years ago, not the ceiling, or anything interior.doubledog said:
