A shelter from the storm
This is the picnic shelter/pavilion that our church is building on our property. It's not done yet - still needs the concrete floor poured, electricity, water, some additional trim work, and landscaping.
Some people don't understand why we're building this. It just seemed that everytime I opened the local paper another church was doing a fundraiser for this or fundraiser for that... and I think that's wrong (for a variety of reasons). Anyway, we wanted to show people that the church wasn't here just to ask for money. We actually wanted to GIVE something to those who live around us. We hope the surrounding community will use this shelter for picnics, reunions, parties, etc. - with no strings attached. Someday we hope to upgrade our playground area as well. God gave us this nice hunk of land, and we want to share it with those who live around us. That's all.
