PARSONAGE APPROVED AGAIN!

The Church Conference met May 28 to approve an increase in the money allotted for the parsonage construction. The first bids had been less than $170,000 and that was the amount approved. After obtaining new bids, prices have increased and the bids were more than the allotted amount so the Church approved the recommended amount from the Finance Committee of $182,000. Now we have a local builder, Hutton, who can start construction on the parsonage. Amen!

I was a little bothered by the fact that some members voted against the increase, but didn't voice their objections before the vote was taken. I would like to see all of us supporting the rebuilding of the parsonage and the church. This blog would be a good place for folks to voice their support or objections for discussion.

My prayers are that the church can now move forward. The decorating committee met with Pro-Cad on May 24 and new plans for the church are coming this week with a lot more detail on the building.
