Hello to all of you from Patty Paugh here in Iona, Minnesota, U.S. I SIMPLY and truly enjoy your videos. I can't believe that you took on such a challenging project. It will be beautiful when you all finish this. I have a suggestion when you get the church finished it would be a great place to have weddings and receptions in the great hall. You could host meetings or conventions. You could asked the community to hold special services at Christmas time, Easter, and other special activities, Plus the children could put on activities for the community. Maybe the people would enjoy doing fund raisers there to help restore this magnificent

Any new toilet is awesome especially when the old one keeps leaking or wont work properly, so great job.
