The senior citizens home, which belongs to the Bermuda Annual Conference of the AME Church, has been undergoing renovations since April.

On Thursday, those overseeing the work held a roofwetting to mark the completion of the home's kitchen.

The renovations, which include linking the men's quarters with the rest of the house, installing geriatric baths, activities' rooms, a nurse room, and a community room, are expected to be completed early next year.
