Building Our Provincial Shrine of Christ the King:  Electrical and Plumbing Installation

Thanks to the great generosity and enthusiasm from our friends and benefactors from around the United States, the first part of Phase II restoration began in late August at the Shrine. This work involved excavation and grading of the interior floor, as well as installation of electrical conduits and plumbing. This will be followed by installation of the radiant heating system into the floor prior to pouring the massive concrete slab.

Workers also began excavating areas which will be the sacraria for the altars in the church. The sacraria are special sinks used for the reverent disposal of sacred substances. They have drains that empty directly into the earth, rather than into the sewer system.

Part 1 of Phase II will provide a 6” thick, structural concrete slab to the church’s narthex, nave, sanctuary, and basement as a foundation for the subsequent steps in Phase II. 
 
Thank you for your generous support in these difficult times for the Church as you help build a stable home for the Institute in the United States, making visible the reign of Christ the King in all things!
