7. With the congregational approval of the proposal to build our new
Christian Education and Youth wing, as well as a new storage building, the
Board submitted the plans from Holland Engineering under the guidance of
Elzinga and Volkers Construction Professionals to the Park Township Planning
Board and received unanimous approval!
As you have noticed, we’ve already done a lot of “breaking ground” by
cutting trees, burning and pulling stumps in the back of the church where
we’ll be building and the volunteer work has been phenomenal. But to
“officially” kick things off, we have a special morning set aside to celebrate
our groundbreaking for the expansion of our church facilities and ministries.
We have designated May 5th
at 10:45 a.m. as our formal prelude to begin
the building of our new facilities here at Parkside!
We have a special service planned, which will take place during our 10:45
a.m. worship service, both inside and outside. Next Sunday at 10:45 a.m.!
