Tragedy struck in January 2021 when a devastating fire ravaged Saint Patrick Roman Catholic Church in Hubbard, Ohio., causing millions of dollars in damage and leaving the community heartbroken. In the face of this adversity, the parishioners rallied together, determined to restore their cherished place of worship. The primary objectives of the project were to completely restore the 1967 building, preserve its rich history, engage the community, and ensure the future safety of parishioners.
The successful restoration and preservation of St. Patrick Church has had a positive impact on the collective spirit of the Hubbard community. Many parishioners have stated “it still feels like the original St. Patrick Churchâ€. Not only has the building been restored to its former glory, but the project has also served as a source of resilience, and hope among parishioners and residents alike. The revitalized St. Patrick Church stands as a symbol of strength, faith, and community pride, ensuring that its legacy will endure for generations to come.
