In 1987, then-Bishop John F. Donoghue gave his approval for building to begin at St. Bernadette. Special emphasis was placed on capturing the beauty of the North Carolina mountains in and at the church. The exterior was created in part with stone from the Linville area, and the sanctuary’s rear wall was fashioned of glass to allow a view of Grandfather Mountain and its famous mile-high swinging bridge.
