Informational Meetings about Refurbishing the ChurchWe will have informational meetings on Sunday, March 26, at 12:15 pm and Wednesday, March 29, at 6 pm to share plans about some refurbishing and updating of the building. It’s now been 13 years since we moved to 6767 S. Mingo. Materials deteriorate over time, and we need to keep our building fresh. By being wise stewards in prior years, these costs will be covered from prior year’s specially designated giving (not from general budget or a capital campaign). Come hear all about the updates!
