Emory Heights Baptist Church: February 15th 2015 Update with special pictures

February 15th 2015 Update with special pictures

Things are beginning to take shape. Hopefully dedication will be around the Month of May. We  have about 95% funding for the asphalt, new pews, carpet and new furniture. Some pledges have been made to purchase a pew. We have a pew layout for you to view and see what you think. The layout I showed previously was turned down and wouldn't allow for handicap locations we wanted so a revision was made and I will try to post a picture below for your viewing. We will have asphalt in front of the building and the two sides with a road behind the building with an entrance and exit to main road. I have picture updates with the interior and special lighting. We have the flooring completed except for the carpeting in the Sanctuary and surrounding areas. We will be installing a security system to protect the property. The pews and the church furniture will be colonial white with cherry trim. There will be 46 pews in total to seat approximately 273 people. There will be 54 Choir chairs with a sound system that will enable us to provide a quality sound for our special singing which is doing a great job and for future singing's. There will be audio and video available in place for whatever doors will be opened to us. Let us know what you think or ideas you might have. See you at the 100th Anniversary. Hope you enjoy the pics. We can use help on cleaning any day of the week but especially on Friday's and Saturday. Thanks and God Bless. Visit our services on Sunday's or Wednesday night. Services have really been good. God is at work and we look forward for every worship service. Awana for the youth is doing really well and they meet every Wednesday 6:30 - 8:30 for ages 3 years through high school and early college.

January Update

We have installed Commodes, Urinals and Vanities in all the bathrooms. We have 3 of the 4 bathrooms and in use. We are waiting on a custom marble vanity top for the Ladies bathroom. We have all the partitions installed and look very nice. We now have the back flow Perventor installed and water through out the facility.We installed the hot water in the kitchen. Also installed is the Media Screen in the Sanctuary. We are presently laying flooring on the Stage, foyer and fellowship hall.
      We are near closing on the remaining funds needed to complete the Church. We will have asphalt parking around the Church, New carpet and Colonial white pew ends with a cherry top water fall ends. It looks like the finish date will be approximately the end of April. Possible dedication will be first of may and our 100th. year anniversary at the first Sunday in June. Pictures below were taken today laying the floor. It is made of hand scrape laminate and looks fantastic. Pray that everyone's knees hold out because the youngest one laying the floor is nearly 63 years old and believe me it is taking a toll on all of us.
Praise God for all of his blessings upon the Church and all the new families coming to our church.

December update

We are so close to finishing. We are getting carpet bids, asphalt bids and new pew bids. We will be having Steve Dumas from Dumas manufacturing Birmingham Alabama bringing samples up to view. He will have Pew ends and fabric samples. I will announce the date as soon as I have it but it will be after the holidays. We would like your opinion. The link to web site is :
