Picture History of Construction of the New Sanctuary

WE ARE OFF AND RUNNING !!!

Ground Breaking Day ,April 9th, 2005

It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon and the turnout was great.Everyone was excited, especially the old timers who had watched over this beautful, valuable piece of property for decades wondering when it could be put to God's use, instead of just keeping the grass cut and neat.

May this day truly Glorify God as 60 to 80 thousand cars pass by it every day of the week.

Dr. Griffin say's" Hold Your hat and let's      GO!"

Nov 2-- Additionally, metal studs being erected inside. Will attempt picures next week.

   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anticipate that week of 23 October will see brick walls being installed plus blue metal roofing going up . Utility work will begin on the inside

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Taking a peek at the inside. The church looks so much bigger from the inside than it does from the outside., Anticipate next  week we will see major accomplishments take place. Weather should be on our side sunny and dry.

 

 

 

 

 

We anticipated the week of October 9  to be one in which much progress would me made tincluding the installation of the roof.  It seems that the Good Lord had different ideas and decided to send the rains down . He probably thought that the men needed some rest.
