Repair Hole in Gable on back of

Church

Priority: Very High

High up in the back side of the Church, there is a large hole in the gable. This is an ASAP repair but would require special equipment to get up that high to repair. 

This project has not been adopted... Please reach out if you feel led to help!

Gutter/Drainage Issues

Priority: High

All around the church, there are drainage and guttering issues. Several more drainage issues were discovered after removing the landscape in the front. These drainage issues are being worked on to get the water away from the foundation of the building. 

IN PROGRESS... ADOPTED!

New Gutters

Priority: High

A significant issue for the building are the gutters. We need to replace the 4" gutters with 6" gutters all the way around. The current gutters are overwhelmed - and this will drastically help the water around the foundation as well. 

Currently Not Adopted... Please reach out if you'd like to take this on!

Roof Attention

Priority: High

A significant issue for the building is the roof. It is a tin roof, but there are many screws that are backing out. The roof needs to have a professional go over it and re-screw it down to ensure it is waterproof.

 ​Currently Not Adopted... Please reach out if you'd like to take this on!
