When New Covenant Presbyterian Church in Aiken, South Carolina needed to refresh their seating, the reason was simple: they’re growing—and their old chairs were giving out fast.
The Challenge
As the congregation expanded, the church’s existing chairs began falling apart around the same time, creating an urgent need for dependable, comfortable replacement seating.
The Solution
Deacon John Pretorius connected with Worthington Direct sales rep Sharon, and the church purchased 80 padded fabric folding chairs by National Public Seating (gray fabric with a black steel frame) to support weekly gatherings and multi-room use.


The Results
The new chairs are now in regular rotation across the church—set up and ready for services, classes, and events in multiple spaces.
“We love the chairs, we are a rapidly growing church that really needed some new chairs. Our old ones started to fall apart all at the same time. Y’all were the only supplier I could find that had the nice padded ones. We use them in our Fellowship Hall, Sunday School Room and all around the Church.”
— John Pretorius, Deacon
