UM Men Work Day

The HUMC United Methodist Men met today, starting early for breakfast and a meeting followed by a busy working morning to complete a number of facility jobs around the church.

The first task completed was the introduction of two marked handicapped parking spaces near the north (main) door of the church. The sidewalk was edged with a blue strip, and a handicapped parking sign was installed just inside the sidewalk. This should ease access to the building for members and visitors.

Drainage around the church building was addressed by adding dry creek beds beneath several of the gutter downspouts. These will move more of the rainwater away from the foundation walls, and blend in nicely with the landscaping. The men were also seen on the roof measuring gutters for future installation of gutter guards.

Finally, audio speakers and volume controls were installed in the nursery and kitchen. This will allow people serving in those locations to be part of activities in the sanctuary, especially during Worship services on Sunday morning.

The UM Men will next meet on October 3 at 7:30am for breakfast and a meeting, and invite all church men to attend. They promise (for that meeting) that tractors are optional!
