In the orchard country of central Washington, near historic Leavenworth, three parishes: Our Lady of the Assumption, Our Lady of the Snows, and St. Francis Xavier - were united in a newly constructed church whose liturgical heart is an entirely custom program of natural stonework. Every element and carving was conceived uniquely for this sacred space.

Bianco Carrara and Daino Reale marbles with Azul Bahia granite form the high altar, main altar, ambo, living water baptismal, and twenty turned columns. The centerpiece is a suspended seven-foot crucifix, with Jesus meticulously carved from Bianco Carrara and weighing approximately 420 pounds. Sacred carvings also depict Our Lady of the Assumption, John the Baptist, the four Evangelists, and the Lamb of God. Fourteen ornate Stations of the Cross line the nave, joined by carved holy-water fonts and Our Lady of Guadalupe.

Approximately 22,000 pounds of Italian stone supplied the project. Complex curved pediments required precise 3D modeling and multi-axis machining to resolve compound geometry across multiple planes. Installation culminated in rigging the crucifix twenty feet above the floor and maneuvering a specialized spider crane around finished sacred work to set the massive pediments.

Executed over eighteen months by a specialized six-person team, every altar, column, font, and figure was created for this church alone - a singular, unified expression of craftsmanship in service to the sacred.
