Capital Campaign Construction
In The Beginning...
(click photos to enlarge)Construction is underway! Men are at work. Two trailers are parked in the lot (remember the available Sunday morning parking options).
The scaffolding on the tower appears an effort to form a framework for making it thicker and wider. A major task in itself, we pray the scaffolding put up be safe and secure for the workers.
Here we witness the workers with scaffolding strategically placed for work on the church chimneys. From here it looks as if they incorporated the yellow chute sliding board from the playground to allow them to quickly get down for tools and supplies.
In the landing to the balcony Ryan Klingensmith and his father Pat of Ringler Restoration strip down a pew for refinishing.
The father and son team go into artisan mode to touch-up water damage to the stenciling around a stained glass window in the sanctuary.
First primer is applied to water damaged surfaces..
..then after matching the original colors, paint is applied to the border color.
Stencils are cut to match the original so the design patterns can also be brightened with fresh paint.
Scaffolding going up in the Sanctuary.
The pipe organ appears to have a whole lot more plumbing to it lately.
Are they building a railroad trestle through the sanctuary?
Many crosses.
Scaffolding is secured, pulled up, and bolted into place.
