AUDITORIUM RENOVATIONOn March 2, 2002, Lighthouse Church began their big building project--a complete renovation of the worship auditorium. Everyone pitched in to help with the daunting task of demolishing the old room and recreating a new and modern facility to the glory of God. Work was completed on April 27th, 2002 with a special dedication ceremony. Here is the photographic record:
First the pews must go
And the ugly flourescent lights as well
A temporary worship center in the making
Looking different already
More pews to go
Steve Tolley wrestles with the monstrous pew
The first hole in ceiling -- We're committed now!
Elder Lance Rengel coordinates pew placement
Tom Farm hard at work
Hey, this stuff comes down pretty easy...not!
Darth Farm
A mess in the making
Michael giving encouragement to a weary ladder
What have we done?
Demolition is good therapy
Dumpster detail
The new stage takes shape
New plaster walls
And new air-conditioning....cool
What happens if I touch this wire?
Do not breath in the insulation
I'm feeling warmer already
Nothing like breathing in some more insulation
The lights are working...finally
Almost ready for the new ceiling
Giant robot delivers the drywall
These things are heavy
Professionals at work...Don't try this at home
Say goodbye to ugly old carpet
Maria gets plastered
Such a lonely job
Hey, hey, it looks like a ceiling
Hey, hey, it IS a ceiling!
Sanding, sanding, sanding, and more sanding
...and more sanding
Now we sweep
...and sweep far into the night
First coat of primer
Second coat of primer
Third coat of primer?
Something is crawling on my shoe
And now some color
Final paint...Don't it look good?
Ready for carpet
Some more professionals at work
The same professionals as before
Love that new carpet smell
Back go the pews
Heave
Ho
Last day of work
It is finished
