Making Room for You

Not a very good picture, but it is hard to get a good one facing into the sun. What you see is a massive engineered wall truss that spans what will be the nave and supports the upper floor. We had thought we would just put in a couple columns for support, but the architect's appreciation for church aesthetics said otherwise.

This coming week, will see the rest of this section framed and dry. Check back next week for updated pictures and a progress report. Although it is an exciting time for Christ Community, it's not just about the building. Buildings are resources. They are tools for serving others. The church is the people. We are excited about the potential this building holds for serving the people of Casey county, Kentucky. "Come to Him, that living stone, rejected by men but in God's sight chosen and precious; and like living stones be yourselves built into a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ." (1 Peter 2:4-5 RSV) If you are in the area, come and be part what God is building.
Once we were no people, now we are God's people; once we had not received mercy, but now we have received mercy. His mercy and grace is available to you.
