PLEASE SUPPORT THE INSTALLATION OF A NEW HEATING/COOLING SYSTEM IN THE DEWOLF ROOM COMPLEX
We are pleased to announce that by a unanimous congregational vote on September 28 a new minisplit heating/cooling system was approved for installation in the DeWolf Room complex. And, the installation is underway already! It will take about six business days to complete the installation, which includes four minisplits in the DeWolf Room itself, one in the Historical Properties Room, and one in the Wardwell Room. These units will provide more effective heating in the winter and air conditioning during the summer months. Furthermore, the minisplits have a dehumidifying setting that will help alleviate the high humidity levels we experience, especially in the DeWolf Room.
The total cost of this system is $46,243. During the September 28 meeting, the congregation approved a motion stating that one-half of the total cost would be drawn from our investments in order to begin the installation. The remaining balance, which is $23,213, we hope will be covered by members of the congregation through a special contribution drive. In fact, if we are able to raise more than the balance, we hope to be able to repay some of what was drawn for the down payment on the system. If we do not raise at least one-half the cost, then we will have to return to our investments to cover the remaining balance of the bill. We very much want to avoid that.
We realize that it is the time of year when we make our annual Stewardship commitments. Thus, we really appreciate your additional consideration of this special contribution drive to cover at least one-half of the costs for this system or about $23,213. Below is a form you can print out and leave in the offering plate on a Sunday or send to the church office. We thank you for all that our members are doing to help us meet our contribution goal by December 31, 2025.
