Art Project: Spire

For our most recent art project, we built a large temporary spire covered with silhouette images of members of our congregation.  A video showing this spire, the removal of it, and some of the bellringers who serve us each Sunday can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4UyPBQ6H4g.
