The rest, we said, would be left to the professionals. You know- those folks who are actually licensed to mess with electricity. After months of waiting, the pros are finally getting their chance to tear some stuff up.
Yesterday (12/10) marked the first official day of work on the building. Here are a few shots taken last night. They may be blurry as I was a bit giddy and skipping around and taking pics with my phone. Ok- maybe not skipping- more like bounding.
Walls are taken down to create a larger space for elementary kids.
Three old tanning rooms (sorry the machines were long gone) were demo'd to create an open gathering space for teens, small groups, etc.
Expanding the preschool space.
We'll post more pics as things progress. For now, keep praying that things will go smoothly and safely and that God will keep preparing us for this next chapter.
Praise God! Can't wait to see all that God has in store for our community in 2009! We have so much to be thankful for. Let's keep this project in our prayers.
ReplyDeleteThanks for updating us, I am so excited about getting in there! Thanks to everyone who made this possible, financially and physically.
ReplyDeleteI just dropped by to see the carnage and am happy to report that the photos Fred posted don't NEARLY capture the amount of stuff that's been torn down and torn up in that space. There's dust and dirt all over, workers working, and twisted metal and drywall EVERYWHERE. It looks great!
