What groups have been supported with our new roof?
In addition to the inclusive spiritual community at Weird Church, we are home to SO MANY awesome community groups:
Cumberland Culture and Arts Society
Cumberland Food Share Food Bank
Adventure Daycare Society

How we did it?
Concerts! Fundraisers! Neighbours!
What comes next?
Now that the roof is complete we have other ideas too!
We need to replace the broken panes of glass and add a layer to each window to reduce heat loss in the winter, therefore reducing our carbon footprint.
The louvres in the bell tower and the window frames need some carpentry repairs and painting.
The inside and outside of the building need some repairs.
We hope to return the ceiling of the church to it’s original light blue!
