In August of 1904 the church is decorated for the blessing of the bells. Note that the main building is almost completely shingled with only the steeple structure left to complete. Father Dagnaud wrote to his nephew in late 1903 and stated in his letter that “She will be superb…..The whole Bay will hear the echo of her bells…”
