Catholics Erecting New Our Lady of Peace Church in Alpine
A new Our Lady of Peace church is under construction in Alpine to replace the 40 year old structure. The project reflects Alpine’s population growth since 1916 when Rev. Manuel Cuadrado became the first resident priest. Funds include a notable donor contribution of $1,805, with construction led by contractor MDs Bond Peco. The building features rock front and two towers, and is expected to be completed within months.
