La Piedad Update from January, 2016
Our Lady of Sorrows Catholic Church的点评
点评:I would like to update my previous review of January, 2016, as a number of things have happened since then.
First, La Piedad was hit by Hurricanes Irma and Maria in September, 2017, which inflicted significant damage to the church; especially the roof. The leaks are fixed, but the church is still working on raising funds for permanent repairs to the roof and electrical system. Even though damaged by Maria, the church acted as a marshalling center for hurricane aid for the area, primarily due to its large parking area. For those of you who have been to Puerto Rico, you know how scarce parking really is.
Secondly, La Piedad has been designated a Jubilee Church for 2025, making the receipt of a plenary indulgence possible.
The church is still one of the friendliest I have ever been in. My wife and I come here whenever we are in Puerto Rico; which, for me has been since 1996. Love the church and the people. Would love to see you there.
翻译:我想更新一下我之前在 2016 年 1 月写的评论,因为自那以后发生了许多事情。
首先,2017 年 9 月,飓风伊尔玛和玛丽亚袭击了拉皮达,对教堂造成了严重破坏,尤其是屋顶。漏水已经修复,但教堂仍在筹集资金,用于永久修复屋顶和电气系统。尽管遭到玛丽亚飓风的破坏,但教堂仍充当了该地区飓风援助的调度中心,这主要是因为它有大型停车场。去过波多黎各的人都知道停车位有多稀缺。
其次,拉皮达已被指定为 2025 年的禧年教堂,因此可以接受全大赦。
这座教堂仍然是我去过的最友好的教堂之一。我和我的妻子每次来波多黎各都会来这里,对我来说,从 1996 年开始就一直在这里。我爱这座教堂和这里的人。很高兴在那里见到你。
