The explosion sent a large chunk of plaster falling from the sanctuary ceiling and created hairline cracks that now line the ceiling of the church's Narthex (vestibule), which had been recently painted.

"We have a glass expert coming in," Mulvihill said. "There are a lot of things we don't know, so we're just moving forward."
