Description
Altar - The sanctuary in back of the altar is finished in dark red drapery, and has above it a painting of the sky in which the HOLY SPIRIT appears in the form of a dove. Above this is a painting of the ASCENSION, representing OUR LORD ascending into HEAVEN IN THE CLOUD.
The land for the church and school was donated by the Butte and Boston Mining Co., and the $25,000 needed for construction was raised through miners' subscriptions. The church was officially dedicated by Bishop Brondel on Jan. 16, 1898. The church reportedly served as many as 5,000 parishioners.
This church was scheduled to be demolished. No masses or any other Catholic function can be held at this location. This historic church was saved by contributions made to the St. Lawrence Church Preservation Committee. The church is in need of repairs and your donations will help save this historic church.
