| The First Baptist
Church was organized in 1903 and the present sanctuary was constructed in
the 1960's. As was typical during this period,
the trend was dark walls, dim lighting, and fixed instrument and choir rails.
Sanctuary renovations completed in 1997 updated the lighting, pulpit, and
choir areas. Restoration included replacing the dark paneling with
painted walls and re-arrangement of the pulpit and
choir areas for more openness, versatility, and comfort.
Special lighting and a
dimmer system were added which greatly improved the visual comfort
and enhanced the worship atmosphere. We completed the project on time
and under the construction budget. |
