Recent progress at Sagrado Corazon Church includes installation of underground rough plumbing for kitchen and electric, formwork for foundation at perimeter for new building, steel reinforcement for new church foundation, foundation prep for new chapel and bell tower and the first concrete pour. This ground work will be complete soon and rebar will be installed for the building foundation concrete pour. A sign posted by the community, at the site reads….”Realizing our dream of a new church”

HABC begins grading and compaction at the Sagrado Corazon Church site. Work includes prepping the soil foundation and digging trenches for the perimeter property walls. Rebar and concrete pour for the property wall installation will follow. Pictures above show the site action.

An excited crowd gathered at Sagrado Corazon Church, where a groundbreaking ceremony took place yesterday. Archbishop Jose Gomez officiated the service, which celebrated and blessed the beginning of construction of a new church for this community. The project has been in the works for some time and the members of this vibrant parish turned out to help celebrate the exciting new venture! HABC is just as passionate about this project, grading and compaction of the soil has begun and the foundation for this beautiful new church is being prepared!

We are excited to share footage of the site where HABC will be building a completely new Church. The existing eight structures will be taken down to make space for the brand new Church. Demolition day is coming soon!
