Altar

Following ancient tradition, relics were buried in the floor underneath the altar. The relics are of St. Stephen, Martyrs of the early church, San Pedro de Jesus Maldonado, and a piece of rose colored granite that lined the entrance of one of the two world trade towers destroyed on 9/11.

All liturgical furnishings were designed by Ken Griesemer of Kenneth J. Griesemer & Associates, P.C., Albuquerque, New Mexico and were then crafted by Christ Sandoval of Artisans of the Desert, Inc., Albuquerque, New Mexico
