Ground Breaking for New Addition

GROUND BREAKING WAS JULY 27, 2003

         

              

    On Sunday, July 27, we had a glorious day for our official Groundbreaking.  We worshipped together, and the sermon was based on two Scripture passages used for the groundbreaking of the C.E. building.  Then we went outside, where we sang and prayed together, using an adapted version of the liturgy also from the C.E. building groundbreaking.     Art Phipps, our oldest member at age 95, turned over the first shovel of dirt... and Soren Downing, our youngest member at age 2, turned over the second.     Members of the Building Committee hefted buckets of rocks, labeled with members and friends names and surrounded with their blessings, into the footing trench.
