Remodel!!

As I said in my last update, our volunteers work hard every year and save the Center many thousands of dollars.  This year one of the projects was to remodel the entry of the Mahler Building.  It is where all of our guests are welcomed, the Center Director's offices are there, and GIAL (Graduate Institute of Applied Linguistics) has offices and classrooms.  I wish I had before pictures to show you the tile floor (that buckled up under the heat of the sun last year), the pink walls, and the couches and chairs that you sat 'in' and not 'on.'  They aren't quite done with it yet, but I wanted to show the progress...  It is looking AMAZING!  The new flooring was laid by WAs, the wooden cabinets that will hold all of the different Bible translations where made by our WA Volunteers, the Welcome Desk was re-done, walls painted (I don't think he was a WA). See the picture below...





Great job guys!!!
