| Tympanum Project Update |

St. Mary of the Angels needs your help to finally complete a mosaic on the Tympanum (over the entrance doors) which was originally intended as a part of the historic Church but was unfortunately left incomplete. As part of our 80th Anniversary on Pentecost (May 23rd), St. Mary's is currently raising the funds to complete the mosaic and finally finish the facade of this beautiful historic landmark.
The design is finished and will feature two kneeling angels on both sides of the original ceramic mandorla of Our Lady, which has now been gold-leafed (as part of an earlier preparation for the project). The mosaic will be completed by Mia Tavonatti of the Svelata Foundation. An initial gift from the family of Fr. James H. Jordan, second Rector of St. Mary's, got the project going. It was a project he longed to see completed.
The Photoshop picture below illustrates how it will appear when completed.
BEFORE AFTER
Note From Fr. Christopher P. Kelley - Rector of St. Mary of the Angels Anglican Church:
The Tympanum Project is underway, & we should have the mosaic complete for Pentecost, when we celebrate the 80th Anniversary of our building. If you would like to contribute, as a Thanksgiving, Memorial, or in Honor of someone, please do so. Your special intentions will be recorded in a Book of Rememberance.
Please help us complete this historic project if you can.*
* Make sure to enter 'Tympanum Project' and your special intentions into the Notes section of the PayPal checkout. Please call the Church office if you need help or more information at 323-660-2700.
