Siding and Stone samples

Jake & Donna have collected a number of sampels of siding and stone for our consideration. 

Stone

siding which looks like stone

siding

stone - same type of material as on the inside

stone - same type of material as on the inside

stone - comes individually so it would have mortar lines

stone - it comes in sections like this

stone - with individual stones, so it would have mortar lines

Please take a look at these and come prepared to talk about this on Sunday.  Financial details will be presented at the congregational meeting.

Renovation Project - Outside Material Information

On Sunday, October 17 after the church service, we had a congregational meeting where its was decided that information and pictures of the possible choices for outdoor materials regarding the renovation would be posted here.

Then we will have another congregational meeting on October 31 to discuss and decide on these options.



Ready for new siding/brick


Option 1 - Reside the church to match what we had before.
    Here are pictures of the siding that we have on other areas of the church.



Foyer peak area



Ditto










Foyer entrance - both door areas



Above the front entrance










Back foyer area



west sanctuary windows










east sanctuary windows



Here is a "rough look" with the same siding that we had:

Pros: Least expensive, match other sided areas
Cons: "Ugly"

Option # 2 - Stone

medium look

Please note, that further options will be posted here, once I receive them from the renovation committee.
