Renovation of the facade and installation of candle burners

In the past few weeks, several volunteers have been working on renovating the concrete in the roof above the steps at the entrance to the church. The church was built in 1969, and in the last 7 years that we have been using the church, the facade has not been renovated. In some parts, the old concrete was coming off the pillars and the ceiling by hand, even posing a potential danger to passersby.

Through Mihai, we received advice from Mr. Weber, from the Angelo Weber company. They also provided us with some of the more special and expensive materials needed for the repairs.

Mihai and Ionuț participated in the work voluntarily, along with several colleagues and friends, each according to their available time.

The repair work consisted of:

• cleaning the roof
• checking and restoring the tightness of the roof slab
• cleaning the old paint
• removing the damaged concrete up to the strength structure
• filling the gaps with a special material
• replacing the silicone between the concrete slabs
• painting

Finally, on July 28, Ionuț and Elena installed the candle burners near the church tower. Gheorghe took care that they were transported safely from Romania.

We thank all those who helped with their time and skills for these works. May God bless them with health and peace in their families!
