January 2011 Construction Status
Now that our Sunday School and Offices addition is completed we can concentrate on the building of the New Church.
In December 2010 the Old and Faithful Paulos center was demolished to make way for our New Church.
A small sacrifice for a greater cause. Its functions have already been taken over by our new addition. Children and teachers seem to be enjoying their new learning environment.
With the site cleared our general Contractor, Ashton Wynne, has finalized the earthwork compacting the soil and bringing the pad up to the proper grade.
Pier location and the retaining wall along the creek area has been laid out and the concrete subcontractor mobilized in January to prepare for the pier installation and foundation. ![]()
Concrete work will require approximately 4 weeks to complete (pending weather conditions) resulting in a finished foundation. Ashton Wynne is in the process of ordering the steel members and will begin erecting the steel structure upon completion of the building foundation.
The Building Committee is conducting a meeting on January 27th to review and select exterior finishes, which we plan to have available for parishioners to view upon final completion.
In the mean time Presvytera Mirela concentrates on the interior of the new church working with our iconographer Vladimir Grygorenko on the design for our new iconostasis.
