Back at ya.....one other interesting thing about St VdeP is its history as told to me by a parishioner.  Apparently there was a woman in Tallassee that was reasonably well off and was a fan of Bishop Fulton Sheen.  At some point she decided she wanted to become Catholic but there was no Church so she decided to build one and Fulton Sheen came all the way from NY for its opening.  Not sure how true it is but this guy said they "don't need any money" because all the buildings were paid for and she left them a bunch of money.  Again, may not be completely correct but that's what we were told.
