New Windows

The new Windows have been installed. White Windows have replaced the old bronze colored Windows to match the new white doors, fascia, gutters, and vinyl fence. The windows are double glazed and argon gas filled, to be more energy efficient. These windows are also fixed, eliminating the need for church leaders to check that all the windows are locked before leaving after activities.
