Immaculate Conception Church restoration nears completion
Since 2020, Rangel Construction Company has been working with Fr. Gregory Bartholomew, FSSP, at Immaculate Conception Church in Rapid City on a grand project to restore and beautify the interior of the historical church building.
At a basic level, the 116-year old structure needed the electrical infrastructure redone, and new ordinances called for the building to have a fire sprinkler system. Review of the structural integrity of the building resulted in a requirement to reinforce the original choir loft with a network of steel beams pocketed into the original sandstone walls.
