The Property Team, along with several other volunteers from the congregation, wants to refinish the church pews. This project could take as long as 18 months and will be paid for privately. The sandblasting, fixing, sanding, and refinishing will be done at Jeremy Lee’s rural home body shop.
Our tentative plan will be to have two groups of six workers. Labor will include moving pews, assisting sandblaster, sanding the pews, pew ends rehab (filler or veneer replacement), staining, sealing, applying top coats, and hauling them back to the church. We are looking for 12 volunteers that can commit to this project.
Not sure about your woodworking skills? We will have technical support and will train you. Good tools will be provided, but we will need a few more sawhorses and a trailer.
If you want to talk more, call Jerald Oakes, 507-500-1518. If you want a written detailed description of the plan, email Mark Dokken, markdokken@gmail.com.
