The Tupelo church rebuild preserves older elements while adding modern touches. A beaded ceiling, skylights, and a windowed east wall create a homelike atmosphere. Seating will reach 200 with a fellowship hall that can be closed off. The project began with the old structure torn down in March and the first service held July 15, four months after demolition. Total cost for the leveling work was 100 dollars for bulldozer fuel. The completed building is valued at about 14 thousand dollars with a seven thousand dollar cash outlay.
