Clean up day 2009

Every year we put out a call to the congregation to come and help us get ready for the Opening of Sunday School and the changing season at church. This year our brothers and sisters from Buenas Nuevas came out to help and we did a bang up job.

From our church we had Rosie Main, Nancy Allen, Nancy Schuster, Randy Sargent, George Strouse, Bob Walker, Michelle and Taylor Chaffee, Nick Vaillancourt and his friend, Katelin. We washed windows, polished pews, cleaned carpets and washed floors. The ladies from Buenas Nuevas cleaned the kitchen. One of the ladies took apart our stove and cleaned and polished it from top to bottom. She did an unbelievable job. A few of the men stripped the floor in fellowship hall and then applied a couple of coats of wax. It looked stunning when we arrived in the morning.

It was pouring outside but that didn't stop us from doing a super job inside. Rosie and Nancy went to work in the nursery and Bob and Nancy Schuster cleaned up the parlor. By the time everyone was done, the place looked wonderful. I can't thank everyone enough. It is true that many hands make light the work.
