The mother church of the Diocese of Fall River is in need of some major repairs.
St. Mary’s Cathedral is 166 years old and father Thomas Washburn, rector at the cathedral, says the facility is showing its age.
The Diocese is hosting a fundraising gala next Wednesday to begin the process of raising funds for the repairs. Father Washubrun says restoring the cathedral will allow it to remain the spiritual center of the Diocese.
Father Washburn says repairs to the cathedral will take many years and money raised from the gala will be an important first step.
The gala will be held next Wednesday at White’s of Westport. For more information, you can contact the Diocese or your local parish.
