Renovation: St. Alban's

Sacred Space
 

We were so blessed with the original bequest by Hazel Ross and by gifts from many members of the congregation-- we give thanks for each and everyone who supported us through prayer and through giving. 

If you would like to contribute to this great work,  you can fill out our safe and simple e-finance form and direct your gift to Sacred Space, or you can mail your gift directly to St. Alban's.

Thank you and God bless you all.
