youth room remodel : story of a pew

we are finishing up our third phase of our reimagine project at hendersonville first united methodist church. what started out at remodeling some of our space became 'thecorner' our reimagined youth ministry.

we are excited about the changes and lots of good things are happening. yesterday we had an open house for the greater church community and our elder pastor told a story about the pews we had. we bought these pews from beersheba assembly grounds. they were sitting in the basement of their old chapel on the property.

as the story goes, a pastor in that area built these as a start to having a school up on the plateau. so not only is it neat to use some old furnishing and give them new life, but to have something that reflected the church's mission to reach out to those in need is pretty cool to me.
