Move That Bus...Er Steeple




Our steeple was moved off of the crown of our main church building today. We are getting a new roof and the steeple had to go. Good thing too as there was rotting wood beneath it from all of the water flowing around and underneath it. Hopefully all of this will put a stop to our leaky roof! PTL! We had a 135 foot crane come and pull the steeple off today. It was pretty cool. We had quite an audience for it. Even the Enid police department came and watched. So, now the steeple is laying on the ground beside the building. Plan is to repair all of that roof and replace the rotting frame and fix the steeple (it needed paint real bad) and then put it back up. We are going to spray it with rhino liner truck bedliner stuff instead of painting it. That will take care of the hail damage problem, prevent conduction from lightning strikes, and make it where we won't have to try to figure out how to paint it. Hope you enjoy the pics!
