In 2006 an unknown arsonist set fire to the church, centered in the narthex. It caused tremendous damage, making it necessary to move worship service to the social hall of St. Ambrose Catholic Church.
With Dan Minor as pastor, Eric Born as lay leader and Bob O’Boyle as church board chair, a building committee was formed, with Tim Lasher as the chair. The congregation voted to form a pledge program to fund the reconstruction and expansion of the building.
The construction took two and a half years to complete. Besides restoring the damaged spaces of the church, other areas were added: gymnasium, choir room, bridal room, and storage areas.
We lost many members during this time of disruption.
The building was rededicated in 2008.
