BETTER BLOG

I appreciate Jim adding his comments to the blog. Here is some news that I got by email from Jean McWilliams:
Just some news about the church!!!

We had a wonderful lunch today. After cleaning up, Arlene wanted to lay out the kitchen for the new church on the floor and add the cabinets, appliances, sinks, and etc. Several stayed Beth, Mary Beth, Judy, Carol, Donna, Jean, Jane, Cecil, and Wally. The laid the size out this tape, the cabinets with newspaper, arranged the icebox, stove, warmer, ovens and marked off the island. Just wanted to see how much room you had to work with and walk behind people working. Seems to have worked out real well. They did a great job.

Jane and Wally talked about the library and what he would need for the history and books. Worked on the outside of the church to see how the windows and cross would look at the front on the church. With the same kind of 3 windows on the gym end of the church to match the front of sanctuary.

Arlene said Tom's sister funeral would be graveside rites in Brownwood at Evergreen Cemetery(I think that is the name the one out by the hospital) at 2:00, Monday, May 22.

I would add that Hollis Shults told me Sunday that they buried Lyda's last brother last Tuesday, so add Hollis and Tom to your prayers.

Another good thing that I included in the minutes of the Building Committee was that the Methodist Home had contributed a Grand Piano to us. With some fixing up and tuning, it should be worth around an estimated $12,000. We continue to be blessed with donations.

Remember the Church Building Committee meets Tuesday night at 7:30 p.m.
