Help St. Mary's Recover from Hurricane Katrina

St. Mary's Church, the setting for Rowan's wedding in THE WITCHING HOUR and Aunt Queen's funeral in BLOOD CANTICLE, is in need of financial assistance to complete the restoration of the church following Hurricane Katrina. Fr. Greg Schmitt, Pastor of St. Mary's, is in the process of having the roof replaced. There was extensive plaster damage to the walls and ceiling, the interior of the church must be painted, the exterior of the church must be cleaned and sealed. St. Mary's needs a new sound system, the organ needs to be repaired, and some stained glass windows need to be replaced just to name a few things on the long list of repairs.

Any donation would be greatly appreciated. Donations can be made payable to St. Mary's Church Restoration Fund, 2030 Constance Street, New Orleans, LA 70130.
