Footings and Walls

This week sees some signifiant work on the foundation happening as footings are completed and forms are being put in place for pouring the basement walls. In this picture we can clearly see the bottom of the elevator shaft. The trench work across the parking lot is almost complete and we may get to use the entrance again next week. Most of the plumbing work for the fire suppression system is complete, with the last work being done up in the choir loft (should we call that the balconey, since the choir doesn't use it?) The pipes have been run inside the wall framing on the east and west walls and continued up to the roof. Don't worry, we won't have those bright orange pipes to distract us for long, they will be boxed in with wood to match the roof. Framing is being completed on the north end of the Church this week, including the areas where the Tabernacle used to reside and up behind the rear altar area. The east and west framing is insulated and we should see some walls taking shape next week. Thanks for following along.

Ps. 40:1 I waited patiently for the Lord. He turned to me, and heard my cry.
