Church Work Day

comparing carpet cleaners

removing the wooden forms from when the concrete was poured

We cleaned every chair in the balcony, washed the walls and all the woodwork.

We did some spot cleaning down below too

Rick measured for the new railing for the steps.

We threw in the chairs in the Ed Building for good measure.

Two posts were painted.  I never got photos of the window being repaired in the balcony, the shelf that John and Rick put together to get the crossroads speaker off the floor, the gas pipes being trimmed off by the corner where the bush was removed, and the janitor's sink being repaired.
It felt great to get so much done for the church.  There were some church folks helping down at the Lippencott house today too.
