The Parish Grotto is in need of repair. To ensure the future presence of the Grotto we have had a stone mason inspect it to find out the extent of the repairs needed. The repair estimate is between $1,500.00 to $2,000.00, depending on unknown damage. We expect to have the Grotto repaired in September.
