Our Lady of Perpetual Help Mission Church, Brown Avenue, Scottsdale, Arizona USA
Our Lady of Perpetual Help Mission Church. The Old Adobe Mission was built in 1933 as a spiritual sanctuary and center of the Hispanic community. The Mission is a Robert T. 'Bob' Evans design and bears resemblance to the Mission of San Xavier del Bac near Tucson, Arizona. It is constructed of a unique blend of 6,000 handmade adobe bricks. The original pews - only one remains - were painstakingly handcrafted by the parishioners themselves. Each family was responsible for its own pew. In the year 2000, a small group of volunteers began the task of returning the Old Adobe Mission to active life. In November, 2006, Phase 2 of the restoration was started. Jobs include, updating the electrical system, replacing doors with the original design and install air conditioning and heating units.
