1922 - 1924Father Paul Reinsfels arrived in Fruita in May 1922. His main objective was the completion of the new church.
He was master of Ceremony when the new building was dedicated by Bishop Tihen of Denver. Over 200 people attended the ceremony.
When the time capsule was retried from the Sacred Heart cornerstone in 2016 this picture of Father Reinsfels and a copy of the document changing the church's name from St. Malachy to Sacred Heart was found. You can find these documents in our Church Archives.
