Big Week!

This is a big week! We are having our final inspections for the HVAC, plumbing and electricity. Please pray that all of that goes well so we can move on!

The outside stonework is completed and looks amazing!! The inside fireplace is getting it's hearth laid this week to finish the inside work as well. (Love it!!) The last of the flooring (lobby area and stairs) will be laid this week also. There will be carpet in the main part of the lobby and a wood grain flooring in front of the fireplace and cafe area. That's where we will have our round tables from the Bridge placed. Won't it be great to have a cup of coffee or juice and visit with someone while sitting in front of the fireplace on Sunday mornings?

There is still tons of work going on behind the building to create our back parking lot. That will be going on for awhile. It's scheduled to be finished before our Grand Opening and Open House (our public opening) on Sept. 12 but not our Dedication on August 22. The front lot will be getting a final resurface to remove all the construction ruts and will be ready for us on the 22. Please pray for these parking lots to be completed on schedule. The weather greatly affects this kind of outside work.

We appreciate everyone being ready and willing to pitch in to get the building ready. We will be sending emails out with work schedules this week. As soon as we pass inspection and get cleared to be in the building, we'll start our cleaning!!

Thanks for all the prayers! Remember, this building is being built as a tool to reach those who don't know Christ. We are fighting a spiritual battle when we seek to move forward and take turf for God's Kingdom. Prayer is a very effective weapon! Keep it up!!

We're praying for each of you!
Val and Jeff
