PRINCETON UMC CORNER Pew Cushion Update
In 2021, a suggestion was made to the Princeton UMC former Board of Trustees to purchase pew cushions for the main floor pews in the PUMC Sanctuary. Trustee Lula Crawford spearheaded the initiative, requesting estimates and fabric samples for the Board to examine. Trustees were on board with this initiative, but were adamant that no General Church Funds be used to purchase them. The Board decided to extend an invitation to the congregation to donate cushions in honor or memory of loved ones. If enough donations were collected, the Board would move ahead with the project. The congregation came through and members have now covered 85% of the cost of the cushions. There are some unrestricted funds available in one of the memorial accounts that can be used to cover the rest of the cost. If, however, you are still interested in making a contribution in any amount, those memorial funds could be happily reserved for future projects.
Please email Lori Pantaleo at loripantaleo@gmail.com if you would like to contribute any amount. Checks should be made out to PUMC with “pew cushion donation” in the memo line.
