The historic balcony of the New Utrecht Reformed Church sanctuary is also closed. Very soon the sanctuary itself will also close; services will then be held in the Parish House. Please pray for its restoration. A special consistory meeting, concerning the condition of the roof, took place on Wednesday evening, October 15th. Damage is worse than previously known. Please keep the sanctuary in your prayers. Our organ needs repair Please note that in addition to our sanctuary and bell tower needing repairs, our organ, installed in 1948, also needs repair. That is why our organist is at the piano these days. Please pray for its restoration.
