Bishop Jenning and Reeve Harness cut ribbon - photo I.MeCuaig THE NEW PARISH CENTRE OFFICIALLY OPENED The blesting of the new parish lcentre for Holy Angels' Roman Catholic Church at Schreiber 'was conducted by Bishop E. Q. emnings of St. Patrick's Cath- edral, Fort William. Assisting were Dean Gallagher of Terrace Bay and Rev. J. M. Cano. Altar boys were Bobby Ryan, Ted Ross and Greg MclIsaac. Phe ribbon cutting ceremony 'was shared by Reeve F. V. Harness, the procession leaving the side door and coming round to the front. . ter the Bishop had circled the building, he spoke informally $m the meeting room. He warm- fy praised Father Cano, the building committee, and the con- gtegation as a whole for their combined effort. fie also commended architect Hiarolil Tett who was present for the ceremony and Mauro Ce- brario, local contractor respon- sible for the building. In seven short years, Bishop Jennings said, it seems little short of a miracle that two such handsome buildings as the new church and centre should be 'erected in one parish. "Tt is not, he continued, that one places the material above the spiritual; but that man can be uplifted by his surroundings. It should be easy to, raise chil- dren to be good people, faithful to God, church, and country, in a parish where the evidence of their parent's faith is evident.' Bishop Jennings also welcom- ed those of other faiths who at- tended the ceremony. Reeve Hafness offered the community's. congratulations on the completion of the parish centre, regretting that although it is the best building in town, no revenue can be derived from it, since Schreiber does not tax church property. J. D. Phillips, of the local hydro commission, stated that the new church was the first in Ontario to be electrically heat- ed. The new $70,000 parish centre is also heated by electri- city. The brick building is a split- level design with interior in wood panelling. It contains a study and office, a parish record room, meeting room with kitchen and large storage room. * There are separate suites pro- vided for the parish priest, cur- ate and visiting clergy and for the housekeeper. Due to the size of building, there are five telephones. In ad- dition there is the clergy dining room and living room, The building is completely carpeted in green and gold and the lights chosen to compliment the decor. The main entrance leading to Father Canc's office is on the east and the public entrance, leading to. the committee room, on the west.
