Cristal Saulnier, a member of the Craig congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses, cuts fabric to reupholster church seats Friday. About 600 church members from Colorado and Wyoming joined local volunteers to complete a four-day renovation of the church, which volunteers built for the community nearly 30 years ago. Saulnier said the old church “did the job,” but now, “it’s nice to have something you’re proud of.”

Jehovah’s Witnesses from the area gather in different cities about once a month to renovate churches in need of repair. Craig’s meeting place was this month’s project.
