Gautier Presbyterian Church Rebuilds - November 12



Dear Friends,

Many of you have asked recently what our current needs are, at the church and in the community. I thought I’d list these needs as I know them:


In the community:

1. We need sheet rock to start putting people’s houses back together:
A donation of $7,918 will buy sheet rock for 9 1500-1800 sq ft homes. We buy it in bulk from Home Depot. $7.40 /sheet = 1,000 sheet at $7,400. A house of this size normally requires 110 sheets.

At the church:

1. Contributions towards the Sanctuary we are going to build (total cost: $750,000)
2. We will need to replace our playground equipment (it was destroyed) for our children (total cost? $10,000)
3. Shelves for our Library.
4. Pews (ours were destroyed) $1500 for a pew for our new sanctuary.
5. New or fairly new LCD projector
6. We also eventually have to purchase a piano suitable for our sanctuary.

Our sign is now lighted again, inviting all who pass to enter and find the peace of the Lord.



Grace and Peace,

Rev. Chris Bullock

I see that Boston Piano is giving grants to churches damaged by Katrina for piano replacement. More info at http://www.steinway.com/index.shtml
