Thanks to the volunteers today (more than 30!) from Ancaster, Kitchener, Ohio & Toronto, much work was accomplished today.



Kitchen expansion into adjoining pantry area. 

Barrier Free washroom in foyer being framed. Trenches for plumbing.

Please join us in prayer...

We are 8 weeks into the project...and our move in date is roughly 6 weeks away. 

Please pray for unity of vision and concentration of efforts. Pray for renewing of spirit and body for the laborers, and the support workers. Pray for the speed and efficiency of the construction and installation, and the safety of the workers.

Pray that in the end, God will be glorified, and all will be blessed, and continue to be blessed as we worship together in the new building.

It was wonderful to see volunteers willing to come on New Year's eve to help! Some are even able to stay into 2012 to work!

The framing at the front of the sanctuary is completed for now.
The pulpit area will wait for a bit, to allow the skyjack more maneuverability for the lighting installation.

Many thanks to the ladies also, for providing such delicious meals and coffee breaks!

 Bench sanding continues... getting down to the final check & recheck before preparing to stain... once the dust clears in the sanctuary! We are certainly going to appreciate those benches in the end! It is a wonderful experience to have personally invested your time and effort into something lasting and useful!

Beam installation in the washrooms.

Friday brought a few more volunteers from Ohio.  Many thanks to those who come from so far to help.

The beams arrived, and were installed. We are still waiting on the 12 ft beam we needed most....but we were still able to accomplish other jobs.
