Members of Shelbina’s United Methodist Church attended an official ground breaking ceremony Monday evening for the new fellowship hall that is being built on the North Side of East Spruce Street in Shelbina.

“This will be kind of a multifaceted building, it will be used for a lot of purposes,” United Methodist Church Rev. Thad Carter said, when asked about the new fellowship hall that is being built on East Spruce Street in Shelbina.
   The project, which is hoped to be completed sometime toward the end of the year, is coming along very well, according to Carter.
   Schwada Builders of Shelbina is the contractor on the facility.
   “This is something that has been in the talking and planning stages long before I came here. It’s been at least a couple of years that this has been talked about,” Carter said.
