Chapel 2020 Update

Our current Building Fund has reached $217,500 (rounded). We seem to be gaining steam since we have reached this new level.

We would like to thank everyone for their support and donations to our future home in North Texas. Our Long Term Planning Committee is always on the lookout for the best location that will meet our future needs. We think that our search can become more specific as we reach the $300,000 level with our Building Fund.
Altar Update

We have begun work on our present altar to re-fit it to a flat surface table top in our Sunday School. Please excuse anything that looks unfinished while we are transitioning. The present altar will be getting a face lift and look beautiful when it is ready for our Sunday School.

Fabrication of the new altar was to be completed this week, however there may be a delay. As soon as it is in our building we can get painting bids and schedule the painting job. After that we will be applying the gold leafing trim and new lighting. We do not yet have a finish date.

Thank you for your understanding while we are in transition.
