Construction has started! These pictures were taken in early December.

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

Yall Building.jpg (539338 bytes)The Y'all (youth ministry) building has been moved, the entry porch and access ramp built, and the sidewalk poured. We should soon be able to re-occupy this building. In the foreground is a portion of the new parking lot. This shot is looking south-east from approximately the center of the new parking lot.

Retension Pond.jpg (693539 bytes)Before construction on the new sanctuary could begin, a drainage retention pond had to be constructed on the south end of the property. This shot of the new berm is looking west from Parkfield and shows the drainage pipes and retaining wall.

Foundation 1.jpg (621242 bytes)Foundation 2.jpg (507467 bytes)Here are a couple of views of the foundation preparation for the new church building. To the left is a view from the rear of the existing church building, looking towards the north-east. To the right is a view looking south-east from the corner of Parkfield and Braker.

Mid-December Update:

MidDecSlab.jpg (484076 bytes)MidDecFoundation.jpg (452610 bytes)Work continues on the new church building foundation. The underground plumbing has been put in place and the concrete poured for the outer wall supports. These pictures are taken from approximately the same locations as the ones immediately above.

MidDecCorner.jpg (481449 bytes)MidDecPlumbing.jpg (575406 bytes)Here are close-up shots of some of the plumbing and outer portions of the building slab. These views are of the south-west and south corners of the building and show a portion of what will be one of the restrooms off the narthex.
