The Church gets down to a little business

Every year in January the church holds the Annual Meeting. Among other business, a revision to the by-laws was reviewed and voted on. Of Course our business always begins with food! Here are some of the smiling faces!

A Visit from Dr. Thomas Richard, Ex. Sec. of National Association of Congregational Christian Churches

Dr. Thomas Richard of the NACCC paid our congregation a visit on July 19, 2009. He preached the message of the day for our joint service with the United Methodist Church and the Episcopal Church. He also brought us good tidings from the National Association as he presented us with our certificate of membership to the NACCC.
 A pot luck lunch followed to allow the congregation to meet and greet him.

Redoing the walls in the basement

The congregation put a lot of work into refurbishing Fellowship Hall. Now it is time to turn our attention to our basement area. This area gets a lot of use from the Boy Scouts. It is beginning to show a handsome side to those who pass through!

 

There were many broken spots in the walls. Bob McConnell did a terrific job patching and repairing.

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

It is beginning to look great. Phyllis and Bev helped Bob with some of the painting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

            Beautiful!

 Remodeling of the basement restroom

The trustees hired a contractor to remodel the two dark and out-of-date restrooms in the basement area. The restroom is now a unisex restroom with all new fixtures and flooring and ceiling.  The floor was leveled to make the room handicap accessible.

Here is what the room looks like after the old is stripped away. Notice the inside of the cobblestone foundation of the church!

 The finished restroom is light and roomy. A wonderful improvement to the basement area! You have to walk in it to fully appreciate the change.
