The Walls are Up
Sunday, November 1, 2009: A great volunteer work crew from
Alberta were here last week and helped Gerry with framing up
the first floor of Phase One. Even though we had a snowfall,
the crew worked with enthusiasm and humor and got a lot
accomplished, right up to the floor joists for the second
floor. The weather has warmed up again and we are continuing on
with the building, planning to have the first level closed in
before winter sets in. God's faithfulness encourages us daily.

Construction Starts
On Thursday, August 20 we received the long-awaited permit to begin construction for the Charles Shepson Lodge. The next Tuesday was an exciting day as the cement trucks pulled up and the footings were poured.

The Lodge
It has taken several months to receive final permission to proceed with construction of The Charles Shepson Lodge. The preliminary work has been completed—footings are completed and work is underway for the foundation walls of the first level. It is exciting to see how God has provided funds that will allow us to complete the first step of Phase One which was our commitment for 2009.
