CAPITAL CAMPAIGN BEGINS

We are on the verge of attempting something great for God — the preservation of our beautiful and historic sanctuary, built in 1892.

    When we discovered over two years ago that the exterior brick on the sanctuary was not firmly anchored to the structural framework, we knew this was a situation that had to be addressed, not only for the preservation of the building but for the safety of all those who use our facilities.  We set about consulting with engineers, architects, and contractors to develop the best and most permanent solution.  The Building Committee has estimated the cost of the project at $1.1-1.2 million to completely replace the exterior brick, restore the two towers, insulate the walls, and perform other needed repairs.
     This challenging goal necessitates a capital fund-raising campaign, similar to the ones used in the Phase I and II projects, so that we don’t hinder our day-to-day ministries or add to our long-term debt.
     We hope to use this portion of the website to help keep our church family informed about this campaign and about how all of us can be involved in saving our sanctuary.  We thank you for your commitment and interest.  When we all work and pray together, great things can happen.  Remember: With God, all things are possible!
