Winchester United - Remedation Project

In May of 2013, an earth tremor triggered the east gable wall of the church to collapse. This event set into motion a series of activities that would evaluate primarily the condition of the church structure, and perhaps as well, the condition of the church family. Between that time and now, the church council, the congregation and the community have all provided valuable insight and direction as to what steps we needed to take to address the physical damage to the church.

The congregation was vocal in its discussions regarding the future path of Winchester United and ultimately the congregational vote in July 2015 confirmed the path to follow, namely to repair the exterior structure.  The contract to begin this remediation was recently signed and we expect the work to begin the 3rd week of October to rebuild the east gable wall and to wrap the bell tower in fabric as a proactive step to safeguard the public. This work is expected to take about 3 weeks to complete.

The remediation also requires that 2 additional phases of work take place and the funds must be raised in order to proceed with these additional steps. You are encouraged to participate in this fund raising initiative by donating to the Winchester United remediation project trust fund managed by Ault & Ault Law office.
