Macleay Church Building Project Updates
April 2026 —Moving Toward Interior Finishes
The trades have made excellent progress over the past several weeks, with fire suppression, plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and low-voltage systems advancing well. Exterior porches and other necessary interior and exterior framing work continues to finalize.
Next, insulation will be installed and interior walls will begin to close in, followed by drywall hanging, taping, and initial finishing. As we move through the coming month, inspections will be completed, and more of the building’s interior will start to take shape — bringing us closer to the final stages of trim, paint, and fixtures.
We’re very thankful for the continued support, hard work, and prayers that have carried this project forward. As we approach finish work, there will be opportunities to help with tasks like sanding and painting — if you’re interested and haven’t signed up yet, we’d love to have you join in!
