Service Master moved into the church on Tuesday afternoon and started odor abatement immediately. The nave, parish hall and basement have been full of fans and air cleaning machines for the last 36 hours.
Smoke contamination was worst in the basement restrooms which were part of our 2010 renovation. The repair contractors will assess their condition today and tomorrow and develop a plan for repairs.
The floor of the nave is vibrating with the force of half a dozen air filters. They force the air through a charcoal filter and impart hydrogen and oxygen molecules to the space. We're accustomed to having the nave smell like incense - right now it smells more like a new car.
As many of you know, St. Mary's is said to harbor at least one ghost. One wonders about his reaction to the continuous hum and vibration of his haunt since Tuesday evening.
