ST. FERDINAND SHRINE TO SELL MEMORIAL BRICKS
Did you attend church or school at Old St. Ferdinand in Florissant?
Are you proud of this Florissant landmark which played an important part in the settling of North County?
Would you like the opportunity to say thanks to St. Ferdinand?
The Friends of Old St. Ferdinand are giving you an opportunity to express your thanks. They are planning a Memorial Brick Garden on the Shrine property. People will be able to have their name placed on bricks and these bricks will be placed on the grassy area near the Blessed Mother Statue across from the school and church. You may place a brick with your name a name in memory of someone, the name of a business or any other message. This would make a wonderful gift for someone to whom the Shrine was an important part of their life.
The cost of each brick is $50.00.
Thank you!
