Dear All,
Last Sunday in August if you can believe it. Here is this week’s bulletin.
Pastor Dave

Dear Everyone,

Here is an update on the remodeling. Things are going very well with the new construction for the step across the front of the platform. The guys have installed two floor pockets for the electrical similar to what we have for the sound system so cords and cables can be made less obvious. They have also made some safety upgrades to the electric and installed new breakers. For instance they have put a new GFCI outlet for the sump pump and rerouted some of the electrical outlets on the stage onto their own breaker. Plus they have added two outlets on the vertical ends of the stage which are hidden mostly and can be used when needed.

Because the carpet on the platform was coming up so well and was in good shape, we made a decision to take up the carpet on the platform entirely now before installing the floor pockets so we would not have to cut holes in it. This large piece of carpeting is rolled up and in the vestibule for anyone who wants it. The size is approximately 18X13 while making allowance for the shape of the platform. If you are interested in this, there will also be two more pieces of the same carpet that are under the organ and piano; these are approximately 8X5. They will probably not be available until the week of September 9.

Also, we on the church board have reconsidered taking the two pews out at this time. We are thinking that we were maybe too hasty in this and it could unnecessarily limit our seating capacity. This decision came about in part by observing the proximity of people in this past Sunday morning worship service. Thanks for understanding; sorry to have gotten any hopes up.

THREE REMINDERS
1) I am willing to help you as I can haul any of your “goodies” away from the leftover things in the basement and the vestibule.

2) The last day to get these things is this Friday-August 23. Saturday we will haul everything away.

3) We are looking for volunteers to help us on Sunday afternoon (time TBA) of September 8 to move pews, organ, piano and sound system to make ready for the carpet installation which will begin on Monday – September 9.

Thanks for being patient in all of this. Your great appreciation and the many, many compliments that you have shared have been a tremendous encouragement to the planning committee, the board and the guys doing the work. God has blessed us abundantly and this good gift he is giving us is going to be so wonderful. Praise God from whom all blessings flow.

Thanks so much.

Sincerely,
Pastor Dave

The last day to get things is this Friday-August 23. Saturday we will haul everything that is left away.

REMINDER: Please remove any items you want by Friday, August 23. We will be clearing everything out that is left on Saturday, August 24.

Hi Everyone,
Trying to make you aware that there are still several items available in the church basement and in the vestibule. See the photo. Please take what you would like. If you need help with a larger item, contact me (Pastor Dave), and I will try to help get this to you.

Hi Everyone,
Trying to make you aware that there are still several items available in the church basement that have not been spoken for and now also we have new items from the things that have been removed from the front of the church. You will see these new items in the vestibule. See the photo.

• Wainscoting in bundles; shorter and longer lengths; several bundles neatly tied together.
• Three kneeling benches; two longer and one shorter; with the pads also.
• Four pieces of wooden railing.
• If you see something you like, then please put a note somewhere on the item(s) where it can be clearly seen. Or even better take the item with you.
• If you need help with a larger item, contact me (Pastor Dave), and I may be able to help get this to you if I can.

Also, so we can have things cleared out in preparation for the final stages of the remodeling and the new carpet installation, please remove any items you want from the church by Friday, August 23. This will then give us time to remove all unwanted items from the church the following week.

All items not removed by Friday, August 23, will be taken from the church the following week.

The church is looking pretty amazing. God’s blessing for sure and a testimony to your faithfulness in supporting the ministry here at Faith Fellowship Church. And … do you realize that FFC is TEN YEARS OLD this year. The church began in the spring of 2009, and I believe you incorporated in June of 2009. We are going to have to figure out a way to praise God and thank him for the faithful work that he has performed.
Sincerely,
Pastor Dave
