Nave And Sanctuary Renovations Continue!

On May 30, Trinity Sunday, the people of Trinity Church took everything moveable out of the church in order to prepare it for renovation.  Click here for some pictures of Trinity before the renovations began.  Prayer Books and Hymnals were moved to Barber Hall for our worship there.  So was the wooden freestanding altar.  Many of chairs, benches, banners, and more were moved to the Ida Beck Room at the end of the hall for storage.  On Tuesday, June 1, the contractors began bright and early with the demolition stage of the project.  Now, toward the end of July, a great deal of progress has been made.  The new platform for the altar, the choir, the acolytes, and the clergy is basically complete.  The new lighting has been installed in the church.  Some carpet has been laid.  The new wood floor is in place.  And the woodworkers are about to begin installing the wainscoting around the sanctuary.

The pictures show the nave looking at both the back and the front.  The picture below, left, shows the platform for the altar with the first piece of carpeting in place.  The new lights, which have now been turned on, brighten the space considerably.  Join us on Sunday to see how much work will be accomplished this week! 

While the church is under construction, join us for all of our regular worship services that are being held in Barber Hall, the large meeting room in the basement.  It may not be as elegant as our worship in the church, but it is relaxed and friendly.  Besides -- it will help to whet our appetite for the newly remodeled church when we begin worshipping there in August!
