New church nears completion St. Elizabeth Ann Scton, Hamlin — Most parishes are concerned with building commu- nity spirit. The parish community in Hamlin is more concerned with building a church. Created in 1982, the parish has already out- grown the former railroad station that has served as its church. In 1985, parishioners pur- chased a site on the corner of Lake Road West Fork and Brick Schoolhouse Road on which to build their permanent church. A ground- breaking ceremony was held in May, 1987. When completed, the new 600-seat structure will include not only the church, but also meet- . ing spaces, offices, and a reception area. Al- though a contractor is supervising the project, much of the work is being done by parishion- ers who have been spending weeknights and weekends in work parties. In the fall of 1987, for example, parishioners collected more that 200 tons of rock from local farmers' fields to lay a foundation and a parking lot. Since that time, parishioners have planted trees, raised building supports, and painted. The latest project — being done entirely by parishioners — is putting up the stonework for the exterior of the church. Each family in the parish is also bringing a stone to help build two columns in the sanctuary area behind the altar. Father William Amann, pastor, said that the participation of the people is one of the best parts of the construction project. \It's a chal- lenge to build a church when all around us there is evil, and moral values are disin- tegrating!' The parishioners' participation has not only kept costs down, but has helped foster a sense Parish Notes Trip to Niagara ready to roll St. Thomas More, Rochester — The adult fellowship trip to Niagara-on-the-Lake is scheduled for Friday, August 26. The bus will leave the parish parking lot at 9 a.m. The trip will include a stop for lunch, tickets for the musical Hit the Deck, and a stop for dinner on the return trip. The bus is sched- uled to arrive back at the parish at 9 p.m. Tickets for the trip are $42, and will be sold on a first-come basis. Reservations are due by August 20. Please make checks payable to St. Thomas More Church. For more information, call the rectory at (716)381-4200. The new church building is scheduled for completion in September of this year. of community. Construction coordinator John Oeitrich referred to the work of parishioners as \sweat equity;\ they have invested not only their money, but also their labor. Parishion- ers have commented that working on the build- ing has given them a chance to meet fellow parishioners, to give something back to the Church, and to make a contribution that will last. \We are investing in the future, and that's something that really counts,\ observed Dea- con Ray Datz, a parish staff member. The first Mass at the site was celebrated Sep- tember 12,1987, under a tarpaulin in the pour- ing rain. In December of 1987, the annual Christmas Eve Family Mass was celebrated in the shell of the future church. The church is scheduled for completion in early September of this year. Work crews are at the church Tuesday and Thursday evenings beginning at 6 p.m. and Saturdays starting at 8 a.m. Anyone who would like to help is invit- ed. Monetary contributions to help defray the cost are also welcome. Kevin P.
