We have been busy setting up the hall for summer worship beginning this week, July 1st. Thanks to a generous donation the hall is now air-conditioned. It has already been a boon for several events, including The Gathering Place community meal, funeral luncheons, the Strawberry Tea, and Newcomers Dinner. The kitchen itself is also much cooler for those who are doing the food preparation.
While it would have been an expensive proposition to install A/C in the sanctuary, and costly to run, we can set up for well over a hundred people in the hall. We have moved in chairs, the necessary "holy hardware" and everything else we need to give God the glory from week to week. And when I say "we", I have to give credit to Edna, our custodian, who has done most of the haulin' and totin' when we weren't looking. The office staff has been figuring out how to do projection in this space and Doug has eye-balled the area for music leadership.
I hope you will join us for worship through the summer. There is a low-key but Christian program for kids, and Jesus promises to be present wherever two or three are gathered together. We hope we can do a bit better than that!
Essentially what this means is that there will be no more riots as people race to sit near the fans in the sanctuary.
