Day 1 of Demo in the Books

Day 1 of project Loft renovation is in the books.  In case you haven’t heard, Orlando North is partnering with Lifepoint Christian Church in Lake Mary to reach our community together.  Here’s how it works: Lifepoint has rented the entire top floor of a beautiful, historic building in downtown Lake Mary.  They are renting three classrooms and the auditorium (“The Loft”) to us for a very cheap price.  Lifepoint is also covering the costs of all the renovations and our church is providing the majority of the muscle to get the job done.

Tonight the work began.  Our objective for the first two weeks was to get the carpet pulled from four separate rooms plus The Loft, patch all the walls, paint the walls, build a couple closets, and fix a few odds and ends.  Tonight, we made a huge dent in the project.  All the carpet was removed from each classroom, a hallway, and half of The Loft.  The ceiling was removed from approximately a third of the entire Loft area.  We got a lot more accomplished than we thought we would in the first night AND it was SO much fun.

Tom, Kelly, Jason, Louise, Dan, Jim and John….Great work.

Can’t wait to see what tomorrow night’s crew gets accomplished.  I love being a part of this tribe!!

I’m going to try and keep you all updated on our progress as much as possible.  Take a look at the pictures to see a couple before and afters.
