"The Fire is Still Burning!"
We have agreed upon a basic style of what the church will look like. (At our congregation meeting on July 8, 2007) We are in contact with the City of Mishawaka and they have accepted our preview drawing and are determining the setbacks and lot lines. Once that project is final our architect, Chet Gamble, can begin drawing a more detailed set of plans for the future bid process. Every thing is looking good. Currently, we are planning to erect a sign in the front to show the community what we are doing and that we are still here! So…as always, if you have any questions or comments, please call me or anyone on the Building (shown and listed below) and we will try our best to address them. God is in control, it will be an awesome structure.

Demolition begins
Watch our Progress!
Church demolition completed
The major portion of the burnt building has been removed and filled in. The trustees have put a temporary roof over the elevator and the furnace room to get us through the winter.
