PRE-CONSTRUCTION IS UNDERWAY for the 2nd Century Project for the Scotland AME Zion Church. Contractors and inspectors were on-site this week prepping the church for its repairs and e“HALLELUJAH!” posts Paul Tukey, administrator of the Friends of Scotland Facebook page. “Nearly four years since the flood, we finally have the permit in hand to begin restoration and expansion of the Scotland AME Zion Church without further delay.”The Scotland Juneteenth Heritage Festival was an extravaganza of community spirit, days filled with joy, dancing and music, history and health, a 5K and special events, a film festival, children’s festival and more, all designed to raise awareness and funds to rebuild the historic church.
All net proceeds from the Scotland Juneteenth Heritage Festival benefited the 2nd Century Project, which will repair and expand the Scotland AME Zion Church. The church, built by hand by congregants from 1915-1924, was severely damaged by a flood in the summer of 2019.
This also officially kicks fundraising efforts into a louder, public phase. Please help in any way, in any amount, you can: https://scotlandamezion.org/donate/
