Historic Outaouais church to be resurrected as cultural centre

The hundred-year-old Saint-Antoine-de-Padoue church in Perkins, Que. is closing on May 1. Parishioners are hoping to raise the funds necessary to repair the old building.

A cemetery in Perkins, Que., will be getting some unusual company in the near future: statues and artwork from Saint-Antoine-de-Padoue Church. They’re being buried as part of efforts to deconsecrate the historic edifice and resurrect it as a cultural hub.
