What is the White Church Gallery?

Mike and Carrie Zaitz are renovating an old Methodist Church in Grindstone City, Michigan. Mike claims he just wanted a place to work on his art. He sold Carrie on it, since she's usually up for adventures. From that happy December of 2011 till now, the investment in time and money has seen the church rebuilt from its glorious bones into a work of art, in progress. Carrie is documenting the process because, well, it's easier to hold a camera than to hold an edging sander. She's done both, because she is having an adventure, but it is Mike who drives this project with his intelligence, talent and energy. Together they are working toward creating an art gallery. A gallery which holds objects of beauty and inspiration, but which always points back to the source, our heavenly Father.

Backyard Building

The Back Door!
Something's going on with the back of the church.
Lots of room…for improvement!
As we get closer to opening day, it is imperative(!) that we have more space. All of the equipment and tools we've needed for renovation must be stored elsewhere when the final transformation of the building into an Art Gallery happens.

Space! 
Space in the form of a storage/workspace.
First comes the cement floor, so smooth and shiny!

No, we didn't put our initials in it!
Then comes the roof joists.
Kinda artsy!
It was a ceaselessly foggy day.
This man is excited about the progress!
WE'RE GETTING SPACE!!
It's a very exciting development for us. This stuff has to go somewhere!

Ack!
