Workday, Written Prayers, Carpet, Permits & Up-Fit

Wow! A good bit has happened in the last week. We've got a lot to catch you up on.

For starters- some folks showed up on Saturday to invest some "sweat equity" in our new building. Thanks to all who pitched in. We got a lot done. But don't worry- if you missed this work day, they'll be another one you can get in on on Saturday March 7th.





On Sunday, we asked our community to come and write some prayers and thoughts on the concrete floor before our carpet went in. This was a way for us to lay a positive foundation for all that will happen in and through our new space. Here are a few shots:






I (Fred) was in the space today (Wednesday) and the carpet was starting to go down.



We're gearing up for a final inspection to get our occupancy permit in the next week or so. Please be praying that we'll find favor in the eyes of the inspectors and that things will go smoothly and quickly.

Finally, we could use some help pulling together items to make the space usable. Here's a list of some of the things we're trying to round up with approx. costs:
