Berkeley Heights, NJ, February 13, 2021 – The Church of the Little Flower celebrated its grand opening by holding a Dedication Mass for the Church and Altar. Those in attendance included Cardinal Tobin, Father Andy Prachar, Father Matthew Dooley, Bridget Neigel, the Going Home Project Manager, the REDCOM team, members of the township, and parishioners. REDCOM was honored to work with the Church on their “Going Home” project!

Attendance had to be limited to a certain capacity due to COVID-19, but the mass was able to be live-streamed on Facebook and YouTube, so parishioners could enjoy the ceremony from the comfort of their own homes.

This is REDCOM’s first Church project. It included an 11,200 SF addition, and a renovation of the existing facility, bringing the Church to the size of 17,900 SF. Several of the religious decorative elements were repurposed from the original Church, including the cupola, the framed stations of the cross, and the stained glass windows in the Narthex of the Church.

Established in 1982, REDCOM is a multi-faceted design/build construction company headquartered in Westfield, NJ. Single-source responsibility, qualified in-house professionals, and experienced project managers have enabled REDCOM to design, receive approvals for, and construct many diversified facilities.
