Dear
New Lifers,
Our building is the place we worship God and it’s the home
for our church family. And…it’s time to
make some improvements! It’s been seven
years since we’ve done any significant work to our church building. Over that period of time, wear and tear has taken
a toll. Here are some of the items we
need to address:
·
Refurbish
and repaint the ceiling in the auditorium – The insulation has slowly been
falling from the ceiling. If you look
up, you’ll see bare sections of ceiling and also half-fallen insulation. We need to fix this.
·
Improve
Sound System and Lighting – There is buzzing and popping in our sound
system due to damaged equipment that needs to be replaced. We also need to update some lighting
equipment.
·
Fix the AC/Heater
in the auditorium – This winter many of you brought snow gear to deal with
the arctic conditions in the auditorium. This is a result of the heater being
broken. We’ve had volunteers look at it,
but it needs professional help.
·
Fix the
AC/Heater in the Student Room - On
the other side of the heat spectrum, the AC unit in our youth room is on life
support. Temperatures in that room can
sore to a stifling heat.
·
Replace
TVs– As many of you know, our church had several TV’s stolen. We want to replace the TV in the Lobby and
add one for the preschool class.
·
And more…
Throughout the building we have outdated equipment that needs to be replaced. There is paint touch up and numerous
other smaller items that need to be fixed.
We need your help to make these repairs. The estimated cost for this project is $11,280. Are you someone who is able to make a gift “over
and above” your regular giving? With
your help we can improve our church home.
If you can help, please include the word “building” with
your gift. We hope to move quickly with
these improvements, and if possible, are hoping that all gifts can be given
between now and May 15th.
Thanks for being a part of New Life!
