Roofing, Exterior Painting, Sheet RockTaping and Electrical Work

It is especially nice to see the corner that was the original hole, all repaired and looking great!



The electrician has been busy with many projects - including re-installing the sanctuary lighting. He has a nice lift to get him up high enough to re-install the lights.

The pile of roofing materials is getting smaller! Yeah!

Inside the sanctuary - glad it was someone else with the job of hanging the sheetrock up around the stained glass window!


It is hard to know where to park and which door to use these days. It is encouraging to see the roof ridgeline cap has been installed on the sanctuary roof, and the rest of the roof over the church offices and classrooms is being installed now.

More of everything!

This week we have the plumbers, electrician, sheet rock guys and the roofers all working at the same time! Today I have an "up-close and personal" view of the roof debris just outside my office window.

There is new sheet rock in the kitchen, library, downstairs bathrooms and most of the fellowship hall!

New sheet rock in the library!

New sheet rock in the fellowship hall (our new little walls at the end opposite from the kitchen)

Our new kitchen has sheet rock and a slight change in the door location!

Here is our new roof on the west side (dairy side) of the church - it looks even better in sunshine!



Lovely view of the pieces of old roof insulation and metal...

First pieces of metal roofing are on!

Next to watching the hole in the roof being repaired this week, seeing the first pieces of the new metal roofing being nailed into place - feels "momentous" - after all the months of waiting - remembering the first views of driving up to the church right after the storm. Yes, there is still much work to be done, but this stage is encouraging.

Hole Repair & New Outside Entrance to Kitchen

The new outside entrance to the kitchen/library area has been rebuilt.

The hole is being repaired today! Praise the Lord!

Progress on the roof

Today they are beginning to add the layer of new insulation on the roof!

The south wall - 2/3 of the siding is in place!

The sanctuary - Wed. Sept. 3rd

The sanctuary - still much work to be done. The sanctuary lights - waiting to be cleaned on church workday...

Little by Little...Big by Big

The roof replacement process has begun and what a process! Here are a few pictures from the inside, showing the sunshine coming into the sanctuary as they are putting in the new "ridge line."

The pile of debris is pieces of the old roof insulation called "Firtex" (spelling?).
