Blessed Sacrament Capital Campaign  (Seattle, WA) One of Seattle's prominent, historic landmarks, Blessed Sacrament Church was seriously damaged in the Nisqually earthquake of February 28, 2001. Once the damage was secured, restoration of the church building began in earnest. Workers undertook the daunting task of masonry repairs to the exterior brickwork and window casings, roof repairs, interior sand-blasting of the painted brick walls, as well as an ambitious seismic retrofit of the entire structure.  The Restoration has cost $3.6 million. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we have reached the halfway point towards our campaign goal of $1.6 million!
