Thanks to everyone who helped to change all of the lights in the church last weekend. All of the lights are now long-lasting, low-energy LED lights that will both decrease the frequency with which they need to be changed and decrease our electric bill! This was a big project, so many thanks to all of the volunteers who coordinated and assisted with this effort!
