Well, we finally have beautiful carpet in our church! What a sight for sore eyes! We've worked so hard for the last year and four months, and it's been so worth it. The carpet and linoleum was laid on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of last week. The free, donated pews (thanks to Bro. Cook and his congregation) were picked up in Columbus on Thursday. We had an army of men to help unload them from the truck on Thursday night. Much thanks goes out to The Link Church and Minerva Christian Life Center for helping us lug those heavy pews. There were thirteen 13-ft. long pews to unload! They look absolutely beautiful!
All the Home Interior decor we earned from the party we had in March was hung on Friday night. So in the run of a week, our church was transformed... and all just in time for the Princess Tea Party!
Wed: Carpet and linoleum was finished
Thur:Pews arrived
Fri: Home Interior was hung
The party went well. We had about 22 people all together. It was so much fun! My cousin made a big donation; she rented a limo for all of us to ride in. What more could we need to make us all feel like a true princess?!
The only things left to do at the church are mostly small. We need to finish painting in the Pastor's study so it will be ready for carpet, then we can move a bunch of stuff from our home office to the church--- that will be so very nice!
Once we have enough money saved, we will put carpet in the 3 classrooms and church office.
We're keeping busy getting ready for 2 Bridal showers in May and 2 weddings in June!
Then, hopefully, a vacation for us sometime this year! That would be great and much needed!
God bless!
Keep up the good work.
