New Roof Fund - Donation Campaign - Please Give Now!
Dear Friends of AMC,
The roof on Armagh Methodist Church is in need of replacement. After diligently reviewing several contractors and bids, Church Council has approved a bid to install a new roof by KSL Roofing and Remodeling of Loyalhanna, PA. The contract includes full removal and disposal of all existing layers of metal roofing & debris, replacing any bad decking and support structure, installing new 24-gauge metal roof panels along with installing new gutters & downspouts. Our Finance Committee is reviewing loan rates and terms from local banks as the base contract cost is $147,545 in addition to loan fees, appraisal cost, filing fees, etc. The work is scheduled for the end of September.
Our Spaghetti Dinners, individual member offerings and church group efforts have been successful at raising $62,000 for the New Roof Fund to date. Church Council is asking the members and friends of AMC to dig deep to help pay for the New Roof as we now have a contract and the right company to install the roof. We are kindly asking for donations now through August 31. We have a private benefactor who has pledged to give matching funds up to $5,000! In this spirit, Church Council is presenting our need to parents and volunteers of the groups who participate in our programs. Your donations will effectively be doubled so please give as able as we sincerely understand that family budgets are very tight right now. Any donation of any amount is appreciated and can lower the amount that we need to borrow.
Please make your donation check payable to “Armagh Methodist Church” and write "New Roof Fund" on the memo line. Please mail your check to:
Armagh Methodist Church
570 West Philadelphia Street
Armagh, PA 15920

We will send you an appropriate letter for your tax records. Please call Armagh Methodist Church at 814.446.5551 if you have any questions.
