Onward and Upward – with steel!

The first delivery of steel arrived on the property at the very end of April and it's been amazing to watch the progress of its installation on the site. Over the past three weeks, work has been completed for the foundation walls and footings around the sanctuary, and the underground fire tank has been installed. Backfilling around building has been done and the steel sequences for the commons area structure of the new building have been completed. 

This week there will be work done under the building site as well as on the top of it! This includes Mechanical/Electrical/Plumbing (MEP) rough-ins under the slab for the commons area as well as pouring the concrete slab on grade for this area. Up above, the crew will be working on roof truss installation on top of the commons area.

Next week, work moves down the site to the sanctuary where installation of the steel columns will commence for that area and Mechanical/Electrical/Plumbing (MEP) rough-ins will start under the slab for the sanctuary. The crews will also begin the building up of cold-formed metal framed walls on the commons area exterior. These will eventually become the backing for the final brick facade!

Please take care as you drive around the site. Thank you for your faithfulness in prayer throughout this process. And as always, thank you for your patience and understanding as the work on our new building continues.
