How Do They Change The Lightbulbs?

This is Zion Baptist Church in Marietta, GA. We (my company) recently completed construction of their new 1,100 seat Sanctuary and Education Building. They had their first service on Easter Sunday this year. I worked on this project for about two years.

The Sanctuary was selected to be featured on a tour of four local churches for the Worship Facilities Conference and Expo that is going on right now. Last night about 50-60 conference attendees came to the church to tour the facility. I represented our company and spoke for about five minutes on some of the details and challenges of the project.

16 months of construction, $8.5 million, 200 tons of structural steel, 2,000 cubic yards of concrete, almost 200,000 bricks and the question most frequently asked last night?

"How do they change the lightbulbs?"
