1) The duct work for the heating/AC will be delivered and run in the auditorium part of the building.

2) Bro. Bryant Harris has ordered the sheetrock and it will be delivered.   Help will be needed to unload it and if there is enough help, we might be able to put some of it up.  If you have some men in your church who might be able to come, even for a couple of hours, any help will be greatly appreciated.

Please contact Ivan Ryan with any questions.

Thanks.

Workday Opportunity…

There will be a camp work day on Fri. Nov. 13th and Sat. Nov. 14th.  Work will begin each day at 8:00 am.  We will be working inside the new chapel building.  Contact Bryant Harris for more information.
