Transformation continues...

A quick  team photo  before Joanne had to leave yesterday morning
  Regina Parliament Community Church group here for two weeks.



'THE HOLE' is now closed and the room will get a new floor,
walls  and doorways are framed, new walls built,









Drywall on the sanctuary walls, acoustic tiles on the high ceiling... 
yeah for volunteers with excellent skills, experience and willingness to work hard, hard!










Kenton put the lights in the drop down ceiling tiles, the foyer looks 'cleaned up' and bright now.




Then - bbq lunch outside to enjoy the lovely weather.

'Let's do it together... let's have more fun'

asking, suggesting, discussing, comparing, deciding,
Andre, Juergen, Viktor and Gary  meet Wed. 7am  for the regular Bauteam mtg.

Asking God to grant wisdom, direction and unity,
to encourage his servants and keep all healthy!

May each decision be in keeping with that which GOD HIMSELF has planned for all who enter.


Dietmar continues work on the windows when he is there,  
Frank has installed more heating units,
he replaced the hot water dispenser under the sink for me... etc.

Asking God to encourage his servants and keep all healthy!

May HIS KINGDOM come - at Springbornstrasse 248a here -, as it is in heaven.



measuring, cutting, drilling, fastening, adjusting,
Henry worked endless hours at tiling and grouting the two main bathrooms,
who knew putting up the partitions and doors 
would bring it's own hurdles?

Asking God to show the best 'solution' and alternative,
to reward the sacrificial service rendered,
to encourage his servants and keep all healthy!

May the bathroom facilities adequately accommodate personal needs.


measuring, cutting,  carrying...
climbing,  lifting,   holding...
stretching,  reaching,  putting in place...
then - itching everywhere! 

Ian, Kenton, Marcelo, Gary with help also from Reinhart, Michael,  Kidron
put up insulation in the sanctuary this week.

Asking God to relax cramped muscles and sore joints...
to encourage his servants and keep all healthy!

May this become a sanctuary - safe place of peace - for all who enter.









'on their knees ... for hours and hours '  
Andre, Heinz, Gary, with tile cutting help from Michael, Marcelo, Kenton,
are transforming the floors (main entrance, cloak room, hallway)
Vonda and Olga came to grout a full day yesterday. 

Asking God to restore achy sore muscles and joints...
to encourage his servants and keep all healthy!

May HE already prepare and call to Himself  all who will enter here.

Men's work day today

I was not at church during the day today.  When I stopped by late afternoon there was evidence of the work the men had done..., and Hesha's renditions of hymns was ringing in the hallways.  

The new tile floor seems to create new dimensions for the foyer, can't wait till it is completed and the ceiling tiles are in :) 

 What was the worship centre - now has been 'cleaned out' and is ready for new wallpaper and flooring.  What will be the worship sanctuary, will be the focus of the immediate future, scaffolding is already up.

But first: a day of 'rest' tomorrow;  well  'rest from physical labour and construction'.
