Right: the church sanctuary with pews removed and covered for protection. The new cross member beams can be seen placed between the large structural beams. The new cross member beams will keep the panels in place, preventing them from falling. They have been painted to match the structural beams.. Thanks to H.H. Phinnemore & Sons for a j ob well done.

After the original church burned to the ground in 1952, the current church building was built to replace it. The material they used for the sanctuary ceiling was new for the time. It was a kind of tentest fiberboard which provided both an insulating effect and a sound barrier to reduce echoing. Well, after over 70 years, the panels began to warp and fall down. Perhaps the greater heat we are experiencing during our summers has something to do with it, but age is probably the main culprit. What to do? Lambeth’s own Andrew and Dave Phinnemore of H.H. Phinnemore & Sons came to the rescue. They are basically painters but are also specialists in dealing with this kind of situation, particularly for church buildings. Their repair involves replacing the damaged panels and then placing cross-member beams between the original large decorative structural beams from the original construction. The picture below is the work in progress. They hope to be finished by mid-September. Regardless of the repairs going on upstairs, in the lower air- conditioned hall, where the Sunday services have been taking place, the church put on three barbecues over the summer for the community. Each was very well attended with everyone consuming delicious hamburgers, hot dogs, chips and ice cream. Payment for attendees was just by a donation in a basket. Everyone left with very full tummies!
