The Lights are in, for the sanctuary and for the youth room. They are being wired and added to other areas of the building as well.
Our church is still doing some of the work on our own as well. A very large thank you to all who have worked on the ceiling grid and ceiling tiles! Here are a few of our volunteers at work.
But the new building is not the only place where the work is happening. Our United Methodist Women have begun to take apart and package up the kitchen! It’s an involved process deciding what we need to take with us and what we may no longer need, but the work has started and we are so very thankful for all who are helping.
In addition to the work in the kitchen other portions of the church are being packed up as well. We’ve just started work in the Library and we want to give a lot of thanks to the sewing group and to our sorting volunteers for tackling some of our storage areas.
Are you interested in helping! Want to join the crew as they work on the new location? Want to help us pack/sort? Please contact the church office and we will put you in touch with the different groups who are at work. You can call the office at 309-378-2651 or email at office@downsumc.org
Thank you for all of your support, and please pray for the safety of all who are working.
