So much work has been completed recently! The sanctuary air conditioner was placed on the flat roof with a crane while lots of excited staff and church members watched the process. Contractors have removed the very old air handler (exposing, for now, the ladder that goes to the bell tower) and new HVAC ducts have been installed that now occupy the area from the front to the back of the sanctuary (see pics in Traditional Worship in Fellowship Hall announcement). Electrical work inside is moving forward rapidly with several new electrical panels being installed, including a panel in the attic. Metal studs are being finished up that will support the new walls. It is exciting to see so many improvements happening.
The restoration is scheduled to be finished by late 2025, depending on weather and other factors. We are looking forward to being able to "Open the Doors" and use our full building! Meanwhile, the church continues to operate with a reduced footprint. We are limited to the sanctuary, preschool, youth area, fellowship hall and L-8 and L-9. Staff continue to work at home. We thank you for your patience as we move through the restoration and remain grateful for your continued support and prayers
