Church building and property updates
  1. I wanted to share a few exciting updates on several projects around the church:
  2. Property Easement: Mike Williams, owner of the property behind the church, has graciously donated 0.018 acres to Shady Grove Church to provide the necessary building easement for our future education building. The deed is currently being recorded at the courthouse. We are very grateful for Mike’s generosity.
  3. Survey & Engineering: Both the property survey and the engineering work for the church property and proposed new education building have been generously donated by Rodney Peirson, an engineer from Daleville. We sincerely appreciate Rodney’s willingness to bless our church in this way.
  4. Building Plans: Daniel Banker is completing and submitting the building plans for the required permits. Once the plans are approved, we will obtain construction bids and present them to both the Church Board and the congregation for review and consideration before moving forward.
  5. Technology Upgrade: A new 90-inch monitor will be installed this week in the back of the sanctuary to better support special music, announcements, and messages.
  6. Restroom Improvements: A new commode and handicap grab bar will be installed this week in the small restroom to improve accessibility and functionality.
  7. Security Lighting: Additional motion-activated security lights will be installed around the exterior of the church this week to provide better lighting and improve safety during evening activities.
  8. Thank you to everyone who continues to support and pray for these improvements. It is exciting to see how God is providing through the generosity and service of so many people.
