What’s New This Week? 04-16-21 to 04-30-21

The following work is scheduled for 04-16-21 to 04-30-21:

We are about to reach the first major milestone on our journey to renovate and rejuvenate our Sacred Space.  The makeover of the professional office corridor is nearly complete.  Over the next few days the ministry team will return to their renovated offices and the front office staff and senior pastor will occupy their new offices.  

This in turn will allow final preparations (asbestos remediation, utility shut-offs) to occur in the abandoned spaces so that major demolition work may proceed on the sanctuary late in the week of April 19.  Before major demolition can occur final steps will be taken to complete the necessary utility work and then completely “separate” the two sections of the building, “old” and “new”.

• Complete installation of center work table, cabinetry and counters in new work room

Demolition Preparation
