Recently, several people in the church joined together and offered to **cover the costs for us to build an ADA Family Restroom**. The restroom will include a motorized Adult Changing Table, which will have an insert to use as a child changing table. The new restroom will be located between the main office and Pastor Aaron's office. There is a small restroom there that will be greatly expanded and will have its entrance relocated to be off the hall by the pastors' offices. We will also be doing some remodeling of the offices around the restroom. ## TIMING We are currently hard at work, finalizing the construction plans. The hope is that in early June we will finish planning and begin applying for permits. This will enable us to begin knocking down walls around the end of June and begin construction in July. Construction is expected to take 5 - 6 months. As things progress, more details will be given. --- ![](https://churchusercontent.com/api/image-proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fauth.churchspace.co%2Fstorage%2Fv1%2Fobject%2Fpublic%2Forganization-assets%2Fcd65c94c-6f2f-4a4e-9784-d5d440efa78b%2F6_2026-04-24T16-02-45-759Z.png) ## WEDDINGS **Noah and Lauren Siegrist** Congratulations to Noah Siegrist and Lauren Monk on their wedding on May 15th in Tennessee!
