Progress

Thursday, August 2, 2007
May Jesus Christ Be Praised

We had real progress with sunny skies. The team worked on putting on the vapor barrier. We reached the peak, putting in the purlins as we climbed.

The front pulpit area was clad in siding boards, thanks in part to this church's youth pastor, Paul. Paul also has talents in building steeples. He did the gold overlay on the Russian Orthodox Church in Lesosibirsk. He drew out his vision of our steeple as green with a gold cross. This would match the new tin roof, which will be similar to green Mexican tile.

The excavator arrived and is digging around the foundation. This will reveal any cracks left by the contractor which need to be filled with mortar. It will take several days to finish.

Our health is all good. Thanks to you for your continued prayer support.
