Resurrection Church Pictures Before Refurbishment

Nov. 17-18, 2025 - Nave and Sanctuary Cleared; Kneelers & Pews Removed

Our church beautification process began November 17, 2025. Parish volunteers helped to clear the church as much as possible to allow an open work area as our project got underway. Many hands make light work, as the saying goes. Thanks to all who helped!

Wood Renovators was on-site to remove our pews. Removal started with marking all pew pieces before disassembly. Pew parts were then transported to their Waupaca facility for stripping, repairs and refinishing.
