The Renovation Project is over.

Still, there is cleaning

            underway.

      All pictures have not been hung.

      Every single piece of furniture

            is not back in place.

 

But you can tell we are finished.

      with all things construction.

The kitchen is furnished with

      stainless steel tables,

a casserole warner,

a freezer and two matching refrigerators.

The kitchen is all paid for.

 

Bright new white tables and chairs

were paid for and are now in place.

Several large dumpsters have been filled

with our junk and hauled away.

You will be amazed at the look

of the basement, which will now be

fit for storing things we do not

want upstairs.

 

We have a family who wants to

provide something related to the arts

for our church.

We will approach them about restoring

our world class grand piano

and placing it near the choir

in the sanctuary.

 

Many other smaller projects were done

in conjunction with the renovation.

We believe that we saved money

since the workers were already here.

 

Many people are already using

the parts of the building

made to provide easier access

for those with physical limitations.

The elevator is used several times a week.

 

Most Sunday School classes have moved up-stairs and there is a bevy of activity

in education each Sunday.

 

Visitors to the church who have been here

before, are amazed at the transformation.

We have made great progress in

“Welcoming all God’s people.”

Now, let’s celebrate.

Plan to come to dedication Sunday on March 6.
Bring everybody you know with you.
     Let us know if you want the church to invite
         certain people to the event.

There will be special music, a meal, tours and 
     dedications of the whole project, the stained glass,
          the kitchen and the chapel.

It will be a great day.

Moving to the deeper places,
Jeff
