What does a Stone Mason and a Church Acoustics expert have in common?

Would you know if the best person to do a job was a person from your church or church community? What if that person was one of the most skilled persons in the world for that service? Would you know it and would you hire them? Would you rather hire someone who is worldly, charges huge fees, who give the best sales pitch over someone who is better skilled, who charge less because they want their work to be accessible to any church, not just churches who can afford the big buck and the hype? Is it possible for a Christian to be the best in world at something else other than being a Christian? Hope you enjoy the true story of a Stone Mason.
Blessings
Joseph De Buglio

Apparently it is true. At a recent church meeting where a 160 year old Roman Catholic Church is being restored, the acoustical treatment that I designed will also help to preserve the walls behind it. The acoustical panel will carry current and future artwork while the walls behind the acoustical system will be sealed. With no paint going onto the walls, the existing brick and concrete will no longer be degraded by the chemicals in the paint. This could be the first time where acoustics, Church Iconic Art and preservation are combined together. According to the restoration company, this approach could double or even triple the cycle between major restorations. The church has already been partially treated for sound acoustics and the improvements have convinced church leaders that the rest of the room should be treated as well. For this church, no absorption is being added. Only diffusion is being added to create a phase coherent worship space. The restoration company thinks that adding acoustical treatment system an affordable way to extend the cost of the restoration and it will give better results for hearing and the sound system performance.
