Christmas at St. Benedict the Moor

Pastoral Concerns at St. Benedict the Moor:
      
     1.  Advent Wreath ignites Church Fire:  on Thursday, December 10, 2020
                 immediately following the Noon Day Mass, the Advent Wreath
                 candles malfunctioned and caused a fire within the right side of
                 the sancturary that caught a section of the wall and the carpet.
                     Through the efforts of our Outreach Staff and the Columbus Fire 
                 Department, the fire was put out without incident to person or
                 other parts of the Church building.

                 All Church services are being held in St. Benedict the Moor Hall
                 located on 2935 Ninth Street while clean-up work and restoration
                 continues on the Church.  

                  If you are interested in making a donation towards our 
                  sanctuary restoration, please write a check to:
                  "St. Benedict the Moor Church."   As soon all repairs and
                  professional cleaning of the Church are done, we plan to resume
                  our Mass schedule in the Church.  In the meantime, let us pray
                  for one another and our nation as we heal and move forward.
