Capital Campaign and Heating System Update

Capital Campaign and Heating System Update

The heating system is all installed and working and all bills have been paid. The total cost of the system was $213,331.80…$209, 565.00 to Christenson Plumbing and Heating, a local company, which came in a little under the original estimate; $3,600.00 for the design work to Design Day Mechanical; and $166.80 for administrative costs.

The response to our Capital Campaign to raise funds toward the cost of the system has been very positive. In anticipation of the cost, the church withdrew $165,000 from its endowment fund and set a goal of the campaign to raise $125,000 to replace these funds. Many thanks to everyone who has contributed! We have received almost $90,000.00 to date! However, we still have a long way to go and hope for a lot of continued participation.
