The Grace Lutheran Church Sanctuary Dedication Ceremony was a great event.  It was a clear winter day.  3 scouts and 3 adults from our troop went.  An orchestra played for the church members and the choir sang.  Pastor Kennedy served communion.  By the end of the ceremony the sunlight stopped streaming through the windows and the sanctuary became illuminated by candles and lights.  After the dedication ceremony the food was served buffet style on several tables.  The food was made by the church members and was delicious.  Now that the dedication of the new sanctuary is over the new sanctuary will be used for regular church services and hold Eagle Scout ceremonies.
