At the end of January the tender letters went out to the contractors chosen to submit a tender. It is hoped that by the end of this month a contractor can be chosen. The decision needs to be made soon so that all can go forward immediately after Easter in the first week of April.

We are also progressing on obtaining Heritage Lottery funding for the restoration of the organ. The second and final application was submitted in late November. We have answered a few questions since then. We have an important meeting this Wednesday when a member of the committee that will make the decision in early March is coming for a site visit. Everything still looks hopeful to do the organ simultaneously with the new floor. I am constantly grateful for all those who are making this happen. Their generosity with time, energy and creativity is very humbling.

Please see the separate page which will more fully inform you of the details for the floor.
