Listed below are many of the significant accomplishments which occurred during the 2009 leadership year for the St. Paul Lutheran Church Building and Property Ministry. (This list does not include ongoing and recurrent building and property maintenance / lawn mowing, alley power-washing, etc. — which were also performed by the building and property ministry)

Fall 2009

We have made great progress over the last six months painting, power-washing, repairing and replacing ... and simply keeping the "engine" of our many St. Paul outreach ministries in good working order. A few of the highlights of our ongoing work are as follows.

Spring 2009

May was another busy month for the Saint Paul Building & Property Ministry in our effort to keep the St. Paul Facility functioning to meet the needs of our volumninous outreach ministries.

A preventive mainenance was performed on our air-conditioning system. We found that squirrels had chewed throught and removed several electrical connections & wires. To address this issue, we surrounded the chiller unit (at the top of the bell tower) with 160 square feet  of metal hardware cloth to prevent squirrels from gaining access to the internal components of the chiller unit.
