Mt.
Olivet renovation moves forward, Diocesan House
offices are moving
The complete renovation and restoration of historic Mt. Olivet Chapel and
adjoining Diocesan House shifts into high gear the week of June 16. First
work on the project, which included the removal and storage of the 1850's
era wooden chapel's stain-glass windows and furniture, was accomplished more
than a year ago.
After much waiting and anticipation, plans for the renovation have been completed, a contractor selected, and moving day for the diocesan offices is here.
The moving vans will arrive Monday morning, June 16, and Bishop MacPherson says that Monday and Tuesday, June 16 and 17 will be spent moving to "our temporary home, where we will be situated for about one year." As of Tuesday, June 17, the physical address for Diocesan House will be:
The
Episcopal Diocese of Western Louisiana
3600 Jackson Street,
Suite 201
Alexandria, LA
71303
The mailing address continues
to be the same:

The new quarters for Diocesan House are located in Dunbar Plaza, which is just west of MacArthur Drive on Jackson Street. Parking for the office center is on the west side of the building.
