Members of Worship & Music committee have been hard at work assisting in the enhancement and refurbishment of the sanctuary.
The sound system speakers have been installed; and within the next two weeks, the members of Zion will be enjoying the benefits of having a top-of-the-line speaker system for speech enhancement. The laser-controlled speakers will provide optimum speech enhancement enabling everyone to hear Sunday’s readings and inspiring sermons. The final steps are underway so be on the “look-out” … or should I say… “listen-up.”
The altar has taken on a “new” and beautiful look. Sitting in the pews, the altar and top piece appear to be one piece of “furniture,” however, upon taking a closer look, you’ll see the altar piece is actually mounted to the wall. The cross takes the predominant place on this “new” piece, flanked by the flower arrangements. The surprise is that this altar piece is actually Zion’s original piece brought back to its original state by a true craftsman – Harold Wrede. Thanks to Harold, we will be seeing all of the pieces restored, including the altar, pulpit, lectern, and baptismal font. A special thanks to Harold, for sharing with us the gifts God has given him.
The refurbishing doesn’t stop there…… we’ve got plans for refinishing / refurbishing the pews with new pew cushions, the altar railing, and the chancel approach.
Special thanks to the committee for working so hard in moving these efforts forward. Special thanks to the members of Zion for their willingness to embrace change. Not only do these changes enhance the Zion of today, but move Zion into a new era and celebrate the next 300 years.
