Church of the Assumption, 211 Iberia St, Franklin, LA 70538, US

St. Stephen Catholic Church in Berwick, Louisiana is currently undergoing a restoration project to address necessary repairs, improvements, and beautification in the church's interior. The project, known as Restoring Saint Stephen, aims to bring the church's electrical system up to code, restore the sanctuary and main body of the church, improve lighting and sound systems, and refurbish the choir loft. The construction is expected to be completed by March, allowing the parishioners to return to the church in time for Triduum and Easter. Under the leadership of Fr. Sal Istre, the pastor of St. Stephen Church, the parishioners have shown great generosity and dedication to their spiritual home, surpassing their Phase II fundraising goal of $1 million. The restoration project includes the removal of carpet, repair of termite and water damage, construction of a new altar and pulpit, refinishing of pews, and repainting of the church interior. The church's architectural team, led by Josh Hoffpauir, has carefully planned the restoration to ensure that the beauty of God is clearly communicated through His House.Generated from the website
