(Click on any of the pictures below for an enlarged view.)

Beginning of April 2004 Update:

BegAprilNWCorner.jpg (122282 bytes)BegAprilSWCorner.jpg (124356 bytes)Much of the outer wall insulation is now installed, revealing the overall shape of the building (minus the cupola). 

BegAprilInteriorSECorner.jpg (148675 bytes)BegAprilSECorner.jpg (118113 bytes)The picture to the left shows the main entrance, and the one on the right shows the interior as it looks from the main entrance.

BegAprilInteriorNWCornerDetail.jpg (142386 bytes)BegAprilInteriorNWCorner.jpg (148175 bytes)Left: Interior view from the NW corner (altar).

Right: Interior view from the SE corner (main entrance).

These pictures were taken on a Sunday after services, when the congregation was given an opportunity to view the construction progress.

BegAprilInteriorBird.jpg (117062 bytes)BegAprilInteriorRoofDetail.jpg (154497 bytes)To the left is a close-up of the cupola base and ceiling (the cupola opening is still temporarily closed). To the right is a close-up of the ceiling above the main entrance (if you look closely, you can see the head of a bird peeking out).

End of April 2004 Update:

EndAprilNWCorner.jpg (110555 bytes)EndAprilSWCorner.jpg (121010 bytes)The outer wall insulation appears to be complete and the outer stone work is beginning to be laid.

EndAprilSECornerDetail.jpg (120680 bytes)EndAprilSECorner.jpg (123357 bytes)These views of the main entry show the parking lot curb and walkway.

EndAprilNECupola.jpg (115377 bytes)EndAprilNWInterior.jpg (99059 bytes)This view of the North East corner shows the cupola being constructed. It's actually quite a large, substantial structure. The picture to the right shows the interior from the North West corner of the building, looking through what will be the wall behind the altar.

EndAprilSEInterior.jpg (95027 bytes)EndAprilSEInteriorEntry.jpg (90263 bytes)To the left is a view of the bathroom on the south side of the building (there were a number of early construction pictures taken from what is now outside and to the left). The picture to the right shows the view through the main entry into the narthex and the entry into the nave.

EndAprilACInterior.jpg (84140 bytes)This picture shows the interior as viewed from where the altar will be located. The entrance from the narthex is in the lower left corner of the shot. The structure being built at the junction of the ceiling and wall is the enclosure for the air conditioning and heating ducts. It will pass over the narthex entry and along the full length of the two walls adjoining the narthex entry.
