BUILDING & GROUNDS

The Buildings and Grounds Ministry's main focus is the care and physical beauty

of the church and church properties. They are constantly seeking ways to

improve the overall appearance of the church through landscaping, painting,

and remodeling.

The desire of this ministry is that the church and its properties present a pleasant

atmosphere that is not only pleasing to the eye, but would help in uplifting the

spirit.

Building & Grounds currently provides set-up and tear down each week for our

Sunday morning services. They also help during various times of the year when

Evangel hosts major events which require detailed set up and tear down and/or

behind the scenes construction and maintenance.
