Ground Breaking

On Wednesday June 29th, 2011 the Feast of the Great Apostles and Evangelists Peter and Paul, the stone which Fr. Josef had been saving from his yard for a future church found its rightful home at 1304 North St. in anticipation of the new church construction. We pray that our Lord will give us the kind of faith, vision, and anticipation for His Church that our Pastor Emeritus, Fr. Josef had in eying this stone those years ago! We pray that this stone or "rock" will serve as a foundation of many blessed years to come in serving His vineyard here in Berkshire County Massachusetts!

--Capital Campaign - We can use your help--
We are actively working on a Capital Campaign to finance the construction of our new church. The campaign is in three phases:  The goal for Phase 1 of the Campaign is to raise enough money to enclose the church and be able to hold services in the new building. We are close to our goal for the first phase. We invite you to help us if you can.  Secure Donation Page
