'Transformed'

Father Ed Schnur, pastor of St. Wendel Parish in St. Wendel, welcomes parishioners to the first weekend Mass in the remodeled church on Sept. 5.

“Our church has been transformed,” he said of the eight-month project. From February until the weekend of Sept. 5-6, the parish celebrated Masses in the St. Wendel School gymnasium.
