Church Roof Project

 

Our church roof has been badly in need of repair for several years.  The church board voted to replace the roof with a metal roof.  Insurance has covered part of the replacement cost, but we need to raise funds to put a sound barrier underneath, which insurance does not cover.  We need to raise $10,000.  If you would like to contribute to cover this cost, please mark your donation “Roof Project.”  There is a Roofing Fund category on the Online Giving for you to send in your donation marked “Roofing Fund.”  We are half way to the goal!
