Building Update: Mar. 21, 2003

As the shadows began to fall from the neighboring telecom tower, it became obvious that ours was not a 2-day job! A lot of earth still needs to be moved, requiring perhaps another two or three days to finish the excavation.

Vestiges of the original wall of the 2-story dormitory can be seen behind the cabin of the excavator (white bricks). The hole that goes down 4-5 meters is for the foundations of a wing of the building specifically meant to interact with the public, i.e., in outreach to the community.

Off to the left of the dumptruck is the area for the new worship center. It's getting easier to imagine how the plans will fit into the historic landscape of our downtown setting, and how useful the new building will be for the ministries entrusted to this circle of churches.

We still value your prayer support as we interact with city officials and residents of the neighborhood, as well as with the personnel of the building firm. Thanks for checking in on our progress!
