NORWAY On Christmas Eve, St. Mary Catholic Church in Norway opened its doors for services after a three-month renovation.
Construction began in October, with many church volunteers doing the demolition work.
“It only took two days to remove and dispose of material,” said the Rev. Timothy Ekaitis, pastor of St. Mary Catholic Church. “Many hands make light work.”
