Construction Continues Progress continues to make our Church more friendly to our physically challenged and elderly members. The ramp to the basement is finished except for cosmetic improvements. The demolition work to install the lift to the sanctuary and the basement has started. The project will also include a new restroom in the foyer of the sanctuary. These projects are in addition to the recent replacement of the HVAC systems of the Church.
 The new lift system will be located where the side entrance is currently located. The lift will give access to the foyer of the sanctuary and the basement. Doc Wilson and David Assad are church members working on this project.
 The new ramp makes access to the Fellowship Hall and the classrooms in the basement easy for all ... young or younger. Doc Wilson and David Assad spent many selfless hours to make this new access ramp happen.
 Multimedia Projection System Services in the church sanctuary are enchanced by a state-of-the-art multimedia projection system that incorporates news, music lyrics, and multimedia presentations into the services. The multimedia team consists of Tim Williams and David Assad.
