 Building
Our Vision -
A Golden Time for Giving
Building our Vision -- A Golden Time for Giving is our movement
forward on the replacement Parish Hall. It will be completed just in time for our 50th
Anniversary celebrations. Our original building - the Parish Hall and the
Original Sanctuary -- will be replaced with one building which will house most
of our activities and community groups.
We are taking this opportunity to look at our other buildings and how we
might upgrade and improve them to better meet the needs of our congregation and
the community.
