Restoration of St. Francis RC Church

 

One hundred years ago on May 25, 1902, Trinity Sunday, His Grace The Archbishop of Port of Spain, Patrick Vincent Flood O.P. solemnly blessed and opened the Roman Catholic Church of St Francis Of Assisi in Belmont.

Over the years, the beautiful St. Francis Catholic Church, Belmont, has developed a number of structural problems ranging from termite infestation to porous walls.  In fact, so great was the problem that the building was deemed as unsafe, and in December 2010, tents were put up in the churchyard and there is where the parish community has been celebrating all of its sacraments and religious ceremonies.

The parish community has been actively engaged in a number of fundraising events, all geared towards initiating the much-needed repairs to this national icon.
