And so we begin - again!

After a long delay, we're on target to begin the new construction of the Parish House on Monday, January 11. The building committee decided to wait until after the Liturgical Conference, but this means that we will have only one day between the conference and the start of construction (or "destruction" which is what it will look like first, I'm sure!). Here's the plan:
The offices will be moved on Thursday, January 6, leaving behind only those things needed for running the Liturgical Conference. After the second worship service on January 10, we'll bar all the doors and you'll only be able to leave if you carry something out to a waiting moving van. (Just kidding!). But we are asking anyone who's available to share in a quick lunch provided by the building committee, change into some work clothes and help us move furniture mostly from the chapel lounge and the east assembly room. Some of it will go elsewhere in the church, but much of it will go into a rented moving van to be taken to a temporary storage facility on Raymond Avenue in St. Paul. So it you can follow the van to that location to help unload, it would be much appreciated. Please call the church office - 827-5919 - if you can help out. It will be so exciting to move on to this phase of the plan. I look forward to sharing updates and photos on this site.
