| PARISH MISSION STATEMENT |
| Saint Paul Parish was founded in 1867 by Irish Immigrants. The words of Saint Paul are inscribed above our Church entrance: “stand fast in the faith, be brave and strong”. We live these words by celebrating Mass and the Sacraments, proclaiming the Gospel, and welcoming and serving one another and our neighbors in Butler County. |
Stained Windows Restoration Project
The photos illustrate the panels of the windows being soaked in a tub
with a cleaning solution. They are then set out on a table and brushed.
Each glass piece is removed from the channels of lead, scraped with a
razor blade to remove old weather proofing compound and placed on a tray
in a puzzle piece like fashion resembling the window's original shape
but without the lead came. These are set aside and the process is done
all over again with the next window!
