We're IN!

What an exciting weekend!  Our first service in our new home was a great celebration of God's goodness to us.  Here are some pictures of the cleaning and prep that went on on Saturday, followed by pictures of the Women's Christmas Event on Sunday evening. 

Temporary chairs until ours come in the New Year.

Nursery decked out with toys!

The Fellowship Hall was packed with women on Sunday night, eating desserts, buying auction items and enjoying each others company!

Sitting by the fire telling stories.

The Home Stretch!



It's exciting to see it all coming together now!  Our church family is rallying together to put the finishing touches on this beautiful building.  These outdoor pictures have been submitted by Kathy Turnbull.  Thanks Kathy!

Putting up the lamp posts.

Just a few photos of the goings on at the church lately.  Pictures of the cross going up courtesy of Carolyn Miller.  More photos to come soon...

Fall is here!

The church continues to progress...getting closer now!

Interior, Exterior...and new pictures!!

I'm sure you've all assumed that I abandoned the blog, no, that is not the case, I have finally got some new pictures up!  If you've been by the church lately, you'll see that the exterior stone is just starting to go on, and inside, the electrical is just wrapping up, so drywall will start soon. 

Feb 28 - March 5, 2011

Things are moving along nicely at the church.  As you can see, the windows are in, and these pictures give an idea of some of the interior progress.  Outside, the siding is half finished and the sprinkler system is being installed.




This is taken in the foyer looking at the doors going into the Sanctuary.

 



This is the sanctuary wall where the stage will be.

 



This is in the foyer looking at the front windows of the church.  To the left you'll see the framing of the library and part of the kitchen.

 

Roof is almost done!

Week of Feb 20th.  Roof is almost complete...more beautiful windows...and some interior work...

Roofing & Siding...and Windows! Feb 2011

After taking Christmas and New Years and the first 2 weeks of January off due to winter weather, the crew is back at it.  It's great to have 2/3 of the building dried in with the roof on it.  The siding is starting to come together, and the front of the building is taking shape.

Sorry for the long hiatus between blog posts, there will be more regular updates from now on :) 

Merry Christmas! Snow, snow and more snow!

 Just a couple of pictures this week to show the progress of the frame.  As you can see, the trusses over the fellowship hall are going up.  Building continues to run smoothly.  The crew even nailed up a cross over the sanctuary!

December 6-11th, 2010 Framing continues...

Thank you for all your prayers, it was icy this week, but the crews were focused on safety and the week was incident free.  A few pictures of the frame going up...

Some of the trusses are placed over the classrooms.

Back wall of sanctuary starting to take shape.

The frame goes up!

Thanksgiving week was a slow work week due to the frigid temperatures.  This week also brought the challenge of the snow, but the crew perservered and got a lot done.



First truss going up.  This will be the back of the church.



Had to move a lot of snow to get any work done!

Piece by piece everything is coming together.

Starting to look like a building.

More trusses going up.

Trusses over the classrooms are shipped in from Portland.

Taking the trusses off the truck.



Framer Dan Deshon gives us a smile.
