The Congregational Church of Patchogue, fully funded by their own contributions, started an enormous and necessary project to close the septic tanks and connect to the village sewer last week.
“It is an ecologically wise decision as well,” said Rev. Dwight Lee Wolter.
However, it is also very expensive, he said, noting the cost is about $200,000. The project, he said, is also depleting the church’s reserves.
“This is your church. We could use your financial contributions,” he added. “This is not a pretty project like restoring the stained-glass windows. But this, too, is the work of our church.”
The Congregational Church of Patchogue is known for helping the community. The congregation, which dates back 233 years, operates a weekly soup kitchen and food pantry.
Donations can be made to the church located at 95 E. Main Street, Patchogue, NY 11772. For more information call: 631-475-1235.
