Sacred Heart of Jesus, Rainsville
The Sacred Heart of Jesus Church in Rainsville, NM has been repaired. Mora County interns, Robby Kelly and Santiago Vigil worked diligently on Friday, September 29 to complete this mission. Their lime plaster repair work was very successful and blends in well with the rest of the structure. After the repair, they lime washed the structure with one coat and water colored(brown) it with rollers on extension poles. This gave the normally white colored, lime washed walls a mud plaster look. Thank you, Robbie and Santiago, for the beautiful job!
