Excitement continues to build as we move closer to a new
building at Redwine UMC. On May 4th and 7th the Building
Committee will host an information and answer session.

You should have received a letter from Gene Roberts, our
committee chair explaining some of the information. Let me
briefly share where we are going:
We are looking at continuing to use the present classroom
building and make some minor repairs and improvements. This
would continue to be our office area plus our adult education
area.
We will look at changing the Fellowship Hall into a permanent
classroom that will include our space for our children from birth
forward. When you look at the plans the number in parenthesis is
the number of people/children that class will hold. There will be
9 new classrooms with a total capacity of 124.
The new building we will propose will be our new fellowship hall
and multispace building. This will give us enough room for
dinners of 224 or for a gathering area of 400.
By looking at this phase we will save over $600,000 versus the
original plan. This enables us to meet our goal sooner and build
faster. It will also enable us to have more classrooms, and a new
kitchen and more seating for our fellowship times.
After the presentation on May 4 and 7 and if there is general
consensus of agreement, we will have a Church Conference on
May 27th at 7 pm. This will be for the purpose of approving the
change. Then when we have collected about $180,000 more
we will come back for approval of beginning the actual building.
Keep up your prayers, commitments, and participation. I look
forward to hearing your response and input. I am getting really
excited I can almost see the dirt being dug up and the footing
poured. 2 Samuel 7:27-28
