It has been a lot of detail work that we have been discussing in regular meetings throughout the last year or so. A lot of discussions about the chapels upstairs, the baptistry, details of where things will be placed, details of where the relics will go, and what the altars will be named, who they will be named after. So over the last six to nine months, we have been doing a lot of detail work on some of the interior. Question 4 : What design progress has been made over the last six to nine months? What is currently in progress? So it should be its own ceremony sometime between now and the consecration of the church. We certainly won’t be able to wait until the consecration ceremony to do the consecration of all the bells, the baptism of all the bells, because we hope to have if not all of them at least some of them installed for that ceremony. Question 3 : Will the baptism of the bells be part of the consecration of The Immaculata, or will it be its own ceremony? So I plan for that to be the next major event that we have for the Church project and hopefully depending on what travel bans are in place we can do that this winter sometime As far as updates for the parish, we hope to have the bell foundry come and make a presentation to us like we did last year before COVID made us have to reschedule. So, as I said we will begin concrete and steel work this month and that will continue all during the winter. Question 2 : What is the next major milestone and/or parish event? Between now and then we will see concrete and steel work beginning this month and going all through the winter the masonry will begin in March and will be completed before next winter, so we will have the shell and the structure up by winter of 2021.

So, the short answer to the question is we are on schedule and we will be done with the church in about two years’ time, so hopefully August or September of 2022 we will be completed.

Question 1 : Father, when can we expect the Church to be completed? Is the project currently on schedule? All that being said, we have a lot of work ahead of us and a lot of questions to answer, so let’s dive into some of the questions that you’ve submitted.

The Immaculata itself is a beacon of hope and a very tangible proof of the fruits of tradition. We’re happy to say that this year we will be sending 11 seminarians to the seminary, eight young ladies to religious life, and a young man to the Brothers novitiate. Mary’s we have over four thousand faithful 900 students in our Academy. November 1st marks half a century of the fruits of tradition and in that time we’ve seen the society grow to almost 700 priests extending itself to all continents. As you may know we’re only a few weeks away from the 50th Anniversary of the Society. To date, we have viewers from over 50 countries from around the world and donations coming from over 17 even as far as Indonesia. We’ve been experiencing overwhelming positivity, progress and growing exposure. Today I want to talk to you about the timeline for The Immaculata church project, the new design progress, and other questions submitted from supporters like you from around the world.īut first I wanted to thank you all for your continued interest, generosity and support of the project.
