FROM THE TRUSTEES: Four projects are set to start around the church. We will be repainting parking lot lines, adding some handicapped signs and more. This project is scheduled for Saturday, June 16th. Also on that Saturday, we will begin removal of the ceiling tiles in the choir room, nursery and related rooms and installing new ones if they are on hand. On Saturday, June 23rd, we will pick up where we have left those two items and look to start the next two as these have been completed. We will be beginning the process of removing the fellowship hall lights, replacing the necessary ceiling tiles and installing new lights. We’ll be working on Saturday, June 30th, until these are completed. Help is needed in many ways. Sign up sheets are by the office.
