"Rooted in Christ - Growing in Faith"At Church of the Pines we are in the midst of a great adventure in faith. We are following God's vision for our congregation and expanding our church building so we can improve our ministries and expand our outreach. During our Spring 2008 capital campaign we raised pledges, commitments, and gifts of $1.347,000 for the construction of a major addition to our facility. Our building committee's preliminary construction cost estimate is $1.25 million. The committee has an estimated final cost for the project of $1,600,000 which includes all the furnishings and equipment we will need, such as a sound and video system, new kitchen appliances, tables, chairs, etc., and a 10% contingency fund in case construction costs more than estimated. |
