LET’S FIX THE PORTICO

The Trustees noticed last summer that one corner of the portico (front of the church) had sunk about a half inch in 9 years. Now that corner has sunk about one inch altogether and the other corner has sunk some.

The Trustees would like to address this problem before winter and it will cost around $50,000. The Finance Committee is interested in taking $25,000 from savings and raising the other $25,000 from the congregation over the next several months. Please do not take your regular offering to support this project, but any additional money you could donate would be greatly appreciated. May God continue to bless us as we work together for the Kingdom.
