There has been much going on at the church the past week. Josh Washmuth has completed the build of the stage and is now working on completing the sound booth. The dry wall has went up and the painting will begin next week. Once we have the carpet picked out, the install will begin on the stage. There is still more to be done and i am excited for the church and its congregation. God is so good. I will have more photos later.
03/31/2022 Sanctuary Update-Week 3. The remodel is coming along well. Drywall went up today and they are working on the audio booth. The main speakers were rehung for better sound quality. Everything seems to be coming together. I cant wait for the completion. I have a few photos below.
Update 03/27/2022: Week two of the sanctuary remodel complete. The old stage has been taken down and the new stage has been started. The framing has been done and the floor has been started. Electrical outlets and audio/video boxes have been placed in their locations. Audio and network cabling has been ran for when the sound booth has been complete. The Platform/Step is in its initial stage of construction. It will be arched from one post to the other, so it will take some time to get it just right. Below our some photos from today.
The first week of the sanctuary remodel has concluded. They have completed the removal of the stage and are have been working in the wall. Take a peak at the photos below. I will have a few more in the near future.
