We are going to have two contractors working at the chapel on Monday, November 10. One will be replacing the two outside doors on the rear of the building and the other will be installing the handicap lift in the southwest stairwell. Please use the front two stairwells for the day for access to and egress from the building. In an emergency, the northwest stairwell will be usable. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your cooperation.
