Screen Crew

Several years ago, we needed a large screen for Vacation Bible School. Walt and Evonda Dickinson built one. We liked it so much, we put it in the youth room and used it not just for VBS, but for weekly lessons, movie nights and Youth Sunday!

At a recent lock-in, someone got a little excited with a paint pen and splattered blue paint all over the screen! So we needed some help re-canvassing it. Walt and Evonda and Dave Williams accepted the challenge!


We are really grateful because we use this screen all the time for all kinds of things.
