More Precious Blood
As if the school’s anniversary wasn’t enough, Most Precious Blood Parish, Fort Wayne, experienced another reminder of its age on Sunday, Sept. 14, when it blessed and dedicated a new base for its statue of Mary and the child Jesus. The original base had gradually crumbled over time. The new base was constructed — and the area around the statue landscaped — by parishioners who donated their time. Here, Father Joe Gaughan, pastor of Precious Blood, blesses the statue after the 10:15 Sunday Mass. Photo by Charity Moss.
