Wellington
Farm, USA Continues to
Forge Ahead on the
Stittsville
Church Project
Donations GREATLY Appreciated
Restoration work on the church has been taking place at the park since the day the church arrived in May of 2005.
To date, our biggest job was
to make certain that the roof of the church was repaired in time for - and would hold up through - a Northern Michigan winter.
(Completed - October 2007)
We have
a planned list of restoration activities that we have targeted for completion throughout our 2007 operational year.
Attaching
front steps and handrails (Completed - 2006)
Switching the location and repairs to 1 window & 1 door(Completed
- 2007)
Build/attach
a deck to the church(Completed - 2007)
Prep and painting of entire exterior of the church(Completed - 2007)
Steeple restoration
We continue to move forward
with long-range plans towards Phase II of the Stittsville Church Project. This includes installation of public restroom
facilities, construction of an educational facility/community room adjacent to the church, and offset continued restoration
expenses. The conclusion of Phase II will be the installation of a Tranquility Garden surrounding the outer landscape
of the church.
Wellington Farm, USA
continues to rely heavily on the generosity of our surrounding communities.
