History was made on Wednesday, April 27, 2023. With a fresh coat of paint and new hand-cut cedar shingles, the steeple was raised to its original spot atop the Cumberland. This truly historic event wouldn't have been possible if not for YOU!
Gary Goby inspects details of the gable. His donation of talent and time included duplicating details and supplying materials.
After many days of cleaning, priming, and painting by volunteers, the details speak for themselves.
TGC Structural mounts the cupola to the steeple, which itself was mounted the day before.
Jody and Emma ready their paintbrushes!
