KENNETT SQUARE: Makeover for St. Pat's

Worshippers will be returning to the renovated St. Patrick's Roman Catholic Church, 212 Meredith St., on Mushroom Festival weekend. The Mass schedule will be Saturday, Sept. 7, at 5 p.m. and Sunday at 7:30 a.m., 9 a.m., 10:30 a.m., noon and 6 p.m. 
While the sanctuary has been getting a major makeover (new lights, new floor, fresh paint, new furnishings, new sound system, new kneelers and refinished pews), services have been held at Kennett High School's auditorium. 
Father Christopher Rogers tells me that the official reopening will take place on Sunday, Oct. 6, at noon. Bishop John McIntyre from the Archdiocese of Philadelphia will be present.
St. Pat's is celebrating its 150th anniversary this year.
