Announcements:
The Reunion concert was a wonderful evening. We were able to raise awareness within the community about our accessibility project, which is a really good thing! and we even raised $200 above expenses to go toward the fund. Thank you to all who helped prepare goodies for after (and for church the next day), and to everyone who came out to support the church.

Calling all youth

Woodville Accessibility
Where do we stand?
- drawings are being finalized and sent to the municipality for approval.
- we have an agreement and commitment from the contractor, but not a contract yet.
What is the cost?
- because we decided to change the location of the bathroom from downstairs, to upstairs beside the south-west door, costs have risen slightly to $87,000 plus HST.
What will it look like?
- the accessible entrance will be on the south-west corner of the church, off King Street. From the outside, the door will still look the same. We have decided to go with a cement ramp from the parking lot, across the front of the church to the south-west door. The lift will be placed right inside that entrance, and the accessible washroom will be just to the right of that door, where we currently have coat racks. There will be two doors to the bathroom, one by the accessible entrance to the church, and the other from the south-east entrance so all people can reach the new bathroom.
When will it be ready?
This is still an unknown because we need municipal approval, but our goal is still to begin (and finish?!) this fall.
