The church at 3685 Black Rock Turnpike will celebrate the project with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 11 a.m. Tuesday, July 7.

The solar project was financed and built by SunLight General Capital of New York City, and the solar array was built at no cost to the church, according to a press release.

The church, which was founded in 1849, finished construction of a new building, its third home, in 2014.

“We were very pleased to invest in this project," said Stacey Hughes of SunLight General Capital in a press release. "Our investors want to put their money to work not just for financial return, but also in a socially responsible way. Clean solar energy installed for a faith-based community organization is a double win.”
