Are You Ready for God's Work, Our Hands Project - Rescheduled for September 27th

Sunday, September 27, 2020 from Noon to 3 pm

Exterior Beautification Project at Peace Lutheran

Join us for our God's Work, Our Hands project on Sunday, September 27, 2020 from noon to 3 pm for an exterior beautification project at Peace Lutheran Church, located at 1548 Jackson Avenue in Memphis! We will observe social distancing. Please feel free to bring drinks, snacks, and a folding chair for break time. Box lunches will be provided - you MUST sign up using the link below to be guaranteed a box lunch.

Several of our members have been doing some prep work in the meantime. Here's what we already accomplished:

The front sign is painted, and the exterior front doors and side door have also been painted.
The front flower bed is ready to go.
Planters have been painted and are ready to go.
The old "door to no where" is removed and in the trash. Big thanks to Wally and Candy Knight for installing the new panel and to Twila Hooverson for her painting skills!
Leaves and twigs were raked away from area to be power washed.

While we were there, we noticed that their sign by the side street could be improved with some black high gloss paint, so we have added this to our project list. Also, John Garner has volunteered to stop by and put Roundup on parking lot area.

We do need volunteers to bring equipment (please let Lois Ketcham know what you can bring):

Rakes
Small chain saw to remove juniper out of the front flower bed
Leaf blower
Sturdy broom
Shovels/hoes
Clippers/trimmers
Power washer
Garden Hose
Weed whackers
Small step stools/small ladder
Drill and masonry drill bit to install hose holder

Please RSVP so we know how many people will be helping and know how many box lunches we need - we especially need people to rake and work on the flower beds. If you are unable to participate physically that day, but would like to help, please consider donating some of the needed supplies. Once you RSVP (Yes, No, Maybe), you will have an opportunity to sign up to donate some of the needed supplies for the beautification project (we still especially need appropriate plants for around the sign, planters and by the steps). Thank you! If you have any questions, please contact Lois Ketcham.
