Restoring Sacred Heart Church cross(es) with Woodwork Mastery

Correction: Two weeks ago, on August 24th, 2024, an article by Chris Whelan titled "Crafting a Legacy: The Timeless Restoration Journey of Sacred Heart Church" detailed the stone masonry work being carried out by Paul Barrett and Dwayne Gambacorta at Sacred Heart Church in Upper Town, Paris, Ontario on Washington St.

In the article, it was mistakenly mentioned that Dwayne Gambacorta crafted the new cross from stone. In reality, Dwayne skillfully fashioned the replacement cross from white cedar wood with an Oak wood base, showcasing his expertise as a Carpenter. Paul and Dwayne are dedicated to replacing all five crosses, symbolizing the five wounds of Christ - his hands, feet, and side spear wound.

We regret this inaccuracy and any confusion it may have caused. It was assumed that since the surroundings were predominantly stone, the crosses were also stone; however, they are actually meticulously crafted from wood
