Message from Fr. Tony: SPRING/SUMMER ROAD CONSTRUCTION NEAR ST. MALACHI “A road repair-construction project for West 25th and Detroit, Vermont Ave. and the Superior Viaduct is underway and will last until August. It is a major project which will involve reconfiguring the West 25th and Detroit intersection, re-paving W. 25th Street in front of the church, closing the Superior Viaduct, widening Vermont and creating new parking in front of the County Engineers’ building. “Within a few weeks, it will affect the availability of parking, especially next to the church on Vermont. We will keep you informed through announcements, flyers and the newsletter about the stages of the project as they unfold. We ask your patience and cooperation to make this as easy and painless as possible.” - AJS * * * * * * * * * * CSM ANNUAL MEETING Following our 11 o’clock Liturgy Sunday, Apr. 25 with election of this coming year’s Community Council (2004-2005).
