Kitchen Renovation


January 2025
Daystar’s kitchen and laundry/utility renovations are complete, featuring expansive work areas and sun-filled, bright spaces already fostering creative, innovative, and uplifted activity. Everything from the modern, non-skid flooring to greatly improved airflow, efficient appliances, and the enhanced functionality of our kitchen and laundry/utility rooms has elevated these behind-the-scenes spaces. Each practical improvement already supports Daystar in offering the highest quality services to students of Christian Science at our facility today and for decades to come. Gratitude abounds for the prayerful and practical support our extended Daystar family provided. We are also thankful for the generous gifts offered for this project and to the donors whose past contributions to Daystar helped fund this renovation. Enjoy seeing the newly improved spaces in this video!

Progress continues on Daystar's Kitchen Renovation! In August and September, new walls were constructed and prepped for tile and paint. Soon after, the tile was laid in the kitchen, storage room, and nearby accessible restroom. The new walk-in refrigerator/freezer was properly and safely installed, and the pantry was built. More recently, two windows were added to the kitchen office, providing natural light and an excellent view. The epoxy floor will be poured this week. It will provide an ideal non-slip surface that’s easy to clean and a lovely new reminder of the solid foundation on which this project rests. Thank you for your continued prayerful support as we look ahead to project completion!

As this video shows, the newly poured cement provides a rock-solid foundation on which to build Daystar's new kitchen. This foundational stability will support the behind-the-scenes plumbing and sanitation operations needed in a modern kitchen and productive utility area.

The renovation is well underway! Demolition began in late May. As the space is being reconfigured, we're focused on plumbing and electrical updates that will meet industry standards and prepare us to install a new commercial-grade, walk-in refrigerator/freezer and cast-iron stove.
