Week 31 - Baby, It's (Getting) Cold Outside

As the weather continues to head south for the season, activity on the campus project is heating up, as you can see from our photo album.

As I write this, the roofers are on-site braving the cold to complete the roofing of the entryway and surrounding peaks. The light poles for the parking lot are onsite, which means we'll soon be aglow in the warmth of area lighting, including the steeples. Preparations are underway for laying the bricks for the memorial walkway next week, which should warm the hearts of all who purchased bricks.

Product Plug: Bricks are still available for purchase -- a cool $100 will get you one with your message engraved -- at the Parish office on an on-going basis, and will be installed periodically throughout the year.

Moving inside where it's warmer, much of the interior painting in the office area is now complete, with only the entrance hall to go. The bathrooms received their tile this week (a nice warm brown tone), which means other flooring and fixtures can't be far away. Electrical outlets continue to become "hot" at a regular rate, and the interior building cabling and security system are coming along nicely.

The cold hard facts are, the building is coming together quickly. It's time to warm up to the idea that we will soon be in our Parish Center!
