Office Update...
I cannot help but praise God over and over with how He is providing for our new office. I have always enjoyed watching God work, lead & direct, and provide for His Children and His Ministry. God has provided not only the materials for the project but also the workers to do the project. It is amazing to see the talents we already had within our ranks or those we know well. God is GOOD ALWAYS! not some of the time or just when things are going right, but ALWAYS:-) God always provides in His way and His timing, not man's. God's timing and way is always perfect.
I have been asked this week what is happening with the new office, and so I guess I should bring you up to speed:-) This week we have been planning and getting ready to do the electrical work.
I went out to the office on both Wednesday and Thursday. On Wednesday, I met Ralph & Adele Roberts and Arlene Jones and we took everything out of the office with the exception of tools. That means, if you go by the office there are no chairs to sit in or drinks to be had...so better bring some along if you want either:-) They also did some yardwork in the side yard.
On Thursday, I met Ralph & Adele at the office. They had been doing more brush cleanup/pickup, and wanted to power-wash the gutters. It took some work, but Ralph was able to begin power-washing the gutters just enough to realize that he needed another man or two to help him. The gutters are so full of dirt that when the water hit the soil it created a dam effect. So he needs someone to prode it along while he directs the water. A third person would be helpful to carry the power-washer unit back and forth as those will only reach so far without having to get down off the ladder and move it. So, we will try it another warm day. Would you believe it was over 60 degrees on Thursday, Feb. 2nd? That is not typical KC winter weather. They were able to bring over the open trailer and pick up not only our brush pile but a good part of the neighbor's huge brush pile on the property line. We praise the Lord that the Roberts live out in the country and are able to burn much office tear out and brush. This saved us from having to pay to take this to the dump.
Today, Rob, Rusty and Dave Jaeger spent the day running the electrical wiring, network cables, and a little necessary plumbing. We should be ready for the rough in inspection (inspection 1 of 3) on Monday. After that...I understand that we will begin to hang dry wall...and that is when we can really see things happening.
