The first services in the newly remodeled Peace United Church of Christ congregation were held at 10:45 Sunday. The building has undergone almost complete remodeling and redecorating, and an addition built on, during the summer months. This work started following the last services held on Mother’s Day in May, which was also Confirmation Day for the young people.

The interior of the old building has a new floor and new carpeting, and has been painted and redecorated. This was all done by parishioners. The addition includes a combination room and Sunday School room, and also two rest rooms. The steps into the building are also enclosed.

A pot luck dinner followed the services on Sunday as a get-together and social meeting for all who gave of their time to make the improvements. A formal dedication will be held at a later date. Lloyd Carlson is president of the church council.
