4 St. Peter Parish From the Finance and Operations Manager As you can see the Church Air Conditioning project is in full swing. There has been a slight delay as some of the piping components were coming from Texas, which has had severe flooding issues. Also, the electrical service to the church is rather old and must be upgraded for new air conditioners. Eversource, our electricity supplier, is meeting with us this week and hopefully all will be resolved. Donations for this project are always accepted. Pope Cambridge, MA The ceiling in the tabernacle alcove, behind the temporary wall, has been completely rebuilt and the plasterers have finished. We are now working on lighting and painting before the wall is removed. We will be leaving the door open in the coming weeks so you may inspect the progress. There was a great deal of damage from years of water seepage that needed to be repaired. This area will be re-furbished and open by mid-summer. Tim Harney New Offering: St Peter Book Club We have received quite a few inquiries over the last year of the possibility of starting a book club at St. Peter s. This will be a drop-in group that will meet regularly to discuss a Catholic/Christian/Spiritual title. It will be laid back in its approach. If a title interests you and you can attend the meeting, please join us. It s that simple! The titles and dates for the summer are: Thursday June 25 at 7:00 pm in the Parish Center to discuss Tattoos on the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion by Gregory Boyle Thursday August 13 at 7:00 pm in the Parish Center to discuss The Return of the Prodigal Son: A Story of Homecoming by Henri J.M. Nouwen. If you have any questions please contact Anna Molettieri amolettieri@saintpeterparish.org or x17. Semi-Retired or Retired? Eager to Give Something Back?
