Dear <<First Name>>!
I've enjoyed the relative coolness of the past week, but there are a few hard working laborers who have really appreciated it as they have been rebuilding the granite wall and wrought iron fence damaged last year by an errant taxicab. Sean, Fernando and William have worked hard to move the heavy granite stones out of place where they could be cleaned. They cleared out the site where the wall was to be rebuilt. They rebuilt the wall making slight modifications to keep the fence true. And now they are replacing bricks that were upturned by the force of the cab's collision and the overgrowth of our old American Holly, now removed.
I've posted pictures on the church's Facebook page. I'm not sure that they capture my excitement, but I hope they show a little of the pride of the crew which is laboring for us and our church. Many thanks to Buildings and Grounds--and especially Al Bryan and Judy Mayer--for overseeing this important work.
See you in church!
