This picture reflects the finished grading work on the left side of the building. Pastor Parrish and Boyce along with a few men from the church worked hard spreading lime and grass seed topping it with hay on Monday September 8th. They also ran the drainage piping away from the gym.

Pastor Parrish shares...

Thursday morning the construction company was pouring our 10 foot wide sidewalk along the 140 feet side of the building.

The Septic tank people did a good job and got the 240 feet of line in with just two lines 120 feet each which makes a better landscaping possible etc. and they just left finished today, Inspected and approved. I am sure glad that is over and done. State and county inspectors make me nervous.

They still have a few sheets of sheet rock to hang in the gym and we added a small wall and door in the ladies restroom to cover up the Fire sprinkler riser that is a 6 inch pipe and gauges etc. That will cost an extra $1,000.

The electricians mounted the wall box for Duke power to run their line to and they finished and cut the joints in the sidewalk. They framed up the pads for the 15 ton gas packs at the rear of the building and they will pour those and the floor around the Sprinkler riser inside the building and then frame up for the pad and side walk at the front of the building on Friday.

The gentleman doing the landscaping and grading and paving has been called and may begin the grading tomorrow.

The sheet rock finishers are keeping up with the hangers pretty close so painting will not be to far behind.

Update Monday 8-25-08

This update shows the side of the gym being finished as they move to the top and front of the building.


Approximately 30 people toured the building Sunday evening before the service. Pastor Parrish shares this update...

"Insulation and the cement stucco was being worked on today at the gym. The lower half of the front was finished before the rain.

The inside insulation will be finished then an inspection must take place and then the rest of the sheet rock can be hung.

$2950 is the cost on the septic tank. Remember to pray for God's timing on it with the weather and 3 major underground lines that will be run: Natural Gas, Phone and Power.

The gym will have a monitored fire and burglar alarm system and a separate phone line with new number for the gym."

Tuesday 8-12-08 Update

Progress continues with the Gym. The projected date for it to be completed is November 1st. Remember though that is just the projected date and is subject to change. PTL for good weather as the outside of the building continues to show progress.

NOTE--To see a bigger picture of any that is posted just click on it. When finished select Back.

Below is the Effice Board being applied over the metal. It is installed then a concrete mix is added to it giving it a stucco look and then it will be painted the same as the trim of the Church.

Just a closer look at the Effice board going over the metal.

This is the back of the building facing the apartments. The Effice board is installed and the concrete has been applied. Next is the painting.

Now for the inside.

The metal studs are in place and electrical boxes and lines are being run. This classroom is to the right as you walk in the front door.


This is the second class room to the right.

These are the two class rooms to the Left.

As you walk in and pass the class rooms on left this room will be the warming kitchen. As you look through the room behind it will be one of the bathrooms with shower.
Just past the class rooms on the right is this room which will be a storage closet with a bigger entrance. Again the room behind is part of the other bathroom that has a shower.

This is with the gym in the background looking back at the entrance of the bathroom on the right.

Again with the gym in the background this is the entrance with the bathroom on the left.

Friday August 8, 2008 Update

There is progress taking place this week however there wasn't access to the building now that the doors and windows are in it is secure and locked whenever the contractor isn't there.

Friday August 1, 2008 Update (Inside)

The metal studs are being installed and the inside is beginning to take shape. The gym has a great layout that will make it very useful. Due to there being no electricity the pictures are based on the flash of the camera.

This is the view looking in the front door. This will be a meeting area and four classrooms are on each side, two on one side and two on the other.

A view looking into the gym.
