As I hope you are aware we are currently seeking to raise money to do some refurbishment of the ministry centre. The two biggest items on our agenda are painting and data projection. We first began talking about painting the auditorium back in 2000 and in earnest from 2005, but there have been other priorities that we had to tackle first. About 3 years ago we identified the need to permanently fix the data projectors and re-run cabling to fix up the signal etc. Again other priorities pushed this to the back burner.
This year church council decided these two things just had to get done. The auditorium is looking really tired and the data projection is in desperate need of an upgrade. To do these alone will cost $25 250 (using by far and away the best quotes we received). Along with some other “tidy” up things (tinting windows, some acoustic work etc) we are looking to raise $30 000. This refurbishment is important because of the amount the auditorium is used, not just by our congregation, but by the College and other community groups.
Of course this is all part of the ongoing maintenance of the ministry centre and property. There are other pressing maintenance needs, but we can only do so much at any given time. Any money donated above the $30 000 will help us fast track some of the other maintenance projects.
