All carpet in the education building has been removed due to severe water damage.

We will be posting occasional updates here about the rebuilding process of Oconee Street UMC, as well as current news about the church.

• The final meeting and inspection with the church’s insurance adjuster has taken place. It will likely be weeks before we hear back from the insurance company.
• ServiceMaster has removed all carpets from the education building. Next up: the sheetrock will have to be removed due to severe smoke damage.
• An emergency church charge conference will be held on May 8 to elect a “building committee” that will be the official church liaison with the insurance company and contractors. Location TBD.
• Members of Oconee Street UMC will serve at Our Daily Bread, now meeting at Athens First Baptist Church, on May 13. In honor of their service, local firefighters are invited to join us for a meal.
