4 History of the Proposal Recent Renovations: 1947 ~ w/ Pr. Huntley 1969 ~ w/ Pr. Tome A subcommittee of the Worship Ministry Team met on March 4, 2015 to explore new paraments and banners. It quickly became apparent that the scope of the project was going to expand, as other concerns, including stained carpeting, ceiling and paint/wall-color selections, unmanageable lights, and safety & accessibility issues, were realized.

5 An Eye to Theology Church space has the opportunity to share in the Proclamation of the Gospel through the use of art - to inspire worshipers and through the use of carefully-selected designs - to advance the theology (and doctrines) of the Church and her Scriptures It is also the opportunity for artists, from a variety of disciplines, to give expression to their faith and make use of their talents to the Glory of God.
