L.P.T.
Lesbians with Power Tools
Going on the idea that lesbians love power tools
and therefore, know how to use them correctly, the
group known as LPTs -- Lesbians with Power Tools --
was formed several years ago. Members, along
with a couple of gay men who were made honorary
LPTs, have completed several projects at the church
as well as within the community. These include
the stairs, access ramp and deck outside the office
building behind the church; the combination
bookcase/wall which divides the sanctuary from the
storage area; the enclosure around the sound
equipment area; and an access ramp at the home of
our office manager, Pollie. They also perform
much of the building maintenance, such as keeping
the exterior in good repair. As their schedule
allows, LPTs help community members at their homes,
such as in building the ramp at Pollie's. The
homeowner provides the materials and the LPTs
provide the workers. All they ask for their
labor is a donation to the church.
