Updates and prayer requests

Central Campus: Praise the Lord that the Central Campus Development Permit (DP) and Building Permit (BP) have been received. The Board has approved proceeding with construction of the first Phase of the Central Campus expansion. There could be construction activity onsite starting May 2020. Praise the Lord that the consultant has provided a report of potential Energy Cost savings measures for the existing facility at Central Campus; the report is currently being reviewed and decisions regarding what measures to implement will be made in the future, likely separately from the BUILD project.

NW Campus: Northwest site work continues to progress well. The Steel structure is up and installation of steel decking is underway. Soon there will be a concrete pour of the second level floor. Plumbing, Electrical, Air Duct, Walls & Drywall installation etc. is ongoing. Now that the weather has warmed up, outside work including site grading, underground utilities and landscaping has resumed. The construction site is busy. We anticipate holding the first services in this facility in early 2021.

Tenders: The tender process for the balance of Northwest and a large portion of Central Campus is well underway. The bulk of Northwest contracts have been awarded. The Tenders for the Central Campus will soon be reviewed and several will be awarded.

Prayer requests:                

  • Pray for CSC leadership as they manage the impact that the COVID19 Pandemic will have on the Church and on the BUILD project, that our Government Leaders will make good decisions about how to fight the pandemic, for the scientists and researchers who are looking for a vaccine or other treatment, that many people will be drawn into the kingdom of God during this time.
  • Pray that significant progress can be made during the warmer weather, and that there will not be a repeat of the rain events that occurred during the spring / summer of 2019.
  • Pray for all those involved in the tender selection process, and that the right contractors will be available at the right price.
  • Pray for wisdom as we review the report provided by the sustainability consultant for potential energy cost savings of our existing space.
  • Pray for positive relationships to continue with neighbours at both Northwest and Central.
  • Pray for safety for all workers.
  • Pray for God’s presence on the construction sites at Northwest and Central, the Global Ministry sites.
