RENOVATION APPEAL

The Parish Church of St. Sebastian in the village of Garabandal, in the Peña Sagra mountain range of Northern Spain is now in the process of renovating its old 17th Century Church. Because it is a historical landmark of significant value and importance for the area, we are turning to you for financial assistance. In fact, without your help, we cannot meet the cost of such an enormous endeavor. The Church is old and in need of desperate repairs. The village is small and poor, numbering about 300 people. Therefore, of itself it cannot manage to pay for it all unless you lend a helping hand.

Some of the areas that need renovation with its total estimates are as follows:

1. Remodeling and Renovation Addition to the Sacristy. Cost: 151, 538.37 Euros
2. Roofing Renovation of the Church. Cost: 82,242.74 Euros
3. Architectural Projects throughout. Cost: 14,616.00 Euros
4. Geological Survey of the Ground Area. Cost: 3,538.43 Euros

The total cost for this project is estimated to be 251,935.54 Euros
