Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What exactly is being done?
A: The altar is being moved to the opposite side of the church and will be placed below the Rose Window. The pews will be turned around to face the Rose Window. The organ, choir and musicians will remain in their current location.
Q: How will this affect our worship?
A: It is anticipated that there will be a greater sense of reverence as people focus on the altar and the beautiful stained glass windows behind it, with far fewer distractions.
