Let’s give Brian Clary and Keith Jordan a big shout out and thank you for braving the heat and heights in repairing and cleaning the sanctuary roof water runoff drainage system located at the front of the church and west side sanctuary wall. Another example of the many building challenges that requires routine maintenance.
In June, moisture and mold developed in one of the food pantry rooms because of heavy rainfall earlier in the spring. In an effect to redirect the rainwater coming off the east side sanctuary roof from getting to the foundation wall a new drainage system was installed. The project consisted of a new extended blacktop apron sloped to allow rainwater to flow into an underground French drain system that consists of stone and a 4” perforated pipe connected to an existing drainage pipe. In the end, another nice job by Mike Pelton of Pelton Construction.
The FRCB stained glass window restoration project is moving right along. On July 10 and 11, the installation crew from Chapman installed the first two restored fellowship hall windows. Pictures show a look back and our new look! In the near future, three more windows will be removed for restoration. If you wish to contribute to the stained-glass window restoration project as it continues to move forward, just note your donation is for the “Stained Glass Windows.” Thank you to all who have made this project possible.
