The Rev. Paul Collins (left), rector of Trinity Church, Seattle, receives a construction update from Matt Bridgewater. Christmas Eve will be the first time since February 2001 that the congregation will worship in the church, which sustained significant structural damage to the nave and sanctuary during the Nisqually "Ash Wednesday" Earthquake. Over $7 million was raised for the restoration. The congregation has been holding worship services in its parish hall for the past four and a half years. (Norah M. West/The Voice photo)
