DMTC Expansion Project

  • UPDATE: We have passed a significant milestone this week in our project by completing the installation of the dome. This will help us start the work inside the church. Dome siding work is getting finished by this coming week. Currently the old east wall is being removed and the new area is joined. Electrician is starting this week on the rough electric work inside and also laying cables for the new Audio & Video system. Mill worker is going be on site from this Monday. We have some delay in finishing outside brick work as we are waiting for a new batch of bricks from the supplier and hope to finish that work soon. Access to the sanctuary is restricted due to safety reasons. If you have any questions regarding the project, please contact Project convener Mr. Vinod Thomas or Parish office bearers. Please continue to support the project through your prayers and generous financial support.
  • Sponsorship Form: There are still more items that are available for sponsorship. We request individuals/group/Organization to sponsor some of the remaining items. Please see the attached form for details. For any further information, please contact church trustee Mr. George Koshy (248-615-1888).
