Building and expansion update: We so appreciate everyone’s participation in the soup and desserts lunch while discussing our building and classroom expansion. Our first vote will be only to move forward in design, construction bids, and county permits. Once we have all cost estimates for both the remodel and improvements to our current building and the construction cost to the new building, we will ask the church to vote to proceed. Note, Our church board is focusing on multiple fronts. We are in the process of designing a detailed budget to better understand our current expenses and additional expenses that we’ll incur as we grow.
