Construction / renovation update (as of Fri, 12/13):
The construction sub-committee accepted a recommendation to delay the work on lighting the stained-glass window. It is now anticipated to start sometime in March, weather permitting. The delay is due to the glass subcontractor's concern that winter temps & moisture would be a risk for our stained-glass, which dates to 1957. The outer glass on the north wall of our church will be removed (and the hole covered with a tarp, or similar) for most of the duration of the lighting project. Our contractor will monitor weather to start window work as soon as reasonable in March or April, depending on forecasts. It is likely that this phase of construction will still be underway at Easter. We feel that delaying the work until spring is better than risking damage to the stained-glass. Concrete work continues around the west entrance and north tower, as weather allows. Please keep worker and community safety, dry weather, and good temperatures in your prayers.
