The stage at the front of the Worship Center.

 
     
 

The risers for the choir were refinished by staining the concrete.

     

The re-aligned aisles are carpeted. The floor beneath the seats was resurfaced and the concrete was stained a nice dark gray tone.

 
     
 

The front row of seats on the south side of the Worship Center.

     
The newly reupholstered seats are a very nice gray and are oh so comfortable. 
 
     
 
Looking toward the rear of the Worship Center. The aisles are wider and the seats are laid out to provide more comfort with additional handicap spaces available.
     
We are very excited about the changes to the Worship Center. Join us and check it out.

The last things to be removed before the carpet can be pulled up are the seat sides.

 
     
 

The old carpet is being removed from the stage.

     

The seats are all gone! Now the rest of the old carpet can be removed!

 
     
 

All the old carpet has been removed. The floor is ready for prep.

     
Worker using a concrete grinder. The preparation began with grinding the concrete. After grinding, the concrete will be stained. The plan is to have stained concrete under the seats.
 
     
 
The first coat of stain under the seats in the Worship Center.
     
The plan is to strip the paint from the floor of the choir loft and stain the concrete to match the stage. Here a worker is removing thirty years of paint.  
     
  Workers are applying the second coat of stain to the choir loft concrete which has been cleaned and resurfaced.
