How exciting it was to stand on the property last Tuesday morning (Dec 8) and watch as cement trucks began rolling onto the construction site. One after another pulled up with a load of concrete ready to be poured into the forms for the footings. It was interesting to watch as the concrete was tested to make sure it was the correct mixture. We don't want bad footings. The stability of the rest of the structure depends on a firm footing.
Reminds me of Luke 6:47-48 “Everyone who comes to Me and hears My words and acts on them, I will show you whom he is like: he is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid a foundation on the rock; and when a flood occurred, the torrent burst against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built."
Keep watching! The foundation walls will be poured soon.
Praise the Lord for His faithfulness. You can see the progress on the new facility through the photo journal courtesy of Donna Nikodem. God blessed us with wonderful weather in November allowing this progress. The concrete continues although so does the snow and cold. Pray we can still see some progress for the Christmas season.
Also, continue to pray for our faithfulness in meeting our pledges for BHS and finishing the year strong. And for new participants in the story.
