A History of the Mendocino Presbyterian Church
A look at our history from the early days before the Mendocino Presbyterian Church was born through current times. It includes stories about past people, historic events, the "furnishings" of the church (bell, chandelier, windows, bell rope, etc.) and our 150th Celebration Anthem, sung by the Choir.
Intermission
Saga of the Reep Rope - Run time: 23 minutes
Based on the book by Betty Storz
How the historic bell rope was conceived and executed and what the various knots and colors symbolize. Interviews with Betty Storz and some sequences with our assistant bell ringer, Mitchel Walker, tell us about the past and the future.
It's Only a Matter of Time - Run time: 27 minutes
The Sanctuary Restoration Project
This documentary tells about what we needed to do when we began the restoration of the church sanctuary. Much of the work has been completed by now (we're going to need a sequel!). Many people in the church participated, including our interim pastor, Bill McGuinness.
Fresh popcorn, hot coffee, and cold soda will be available during the videos!
