Project Team Introduced

The work of the Project Team has begun. The members at the invitation of the Church Board are:

Jim Best (Chair)
Peter Hogenbirk (Board Member)
Liz Leduke
Esther Araujo
Dennis Gunter
Pastor Brian

These good folk will serve the congregation by doing behind the scenes work which is so necessary in preparing for final decisions regarding the building project. Design, budget and administrative items are all a part of the mandate - and should we go forward - this team would help follow the construction effort carefully on our behalf.

To a large extent we now need some professional assistance to prepare and gain the approval of the Town of Clarington. The process to start with is called the Site Plan Agreement. An architect is going to meet with us shortly to help begin this Site Pite Agreement process. Lots of questions and ideas to digest in these early days.

More reports to follow - til then we appreciate your prayer support and continued feedback.

Summer Focus Groups Complete

Hello again as we reach the end of August.

This past summer we have held 10 Focus Group meetings - times to get together and provide some input to the on going discussion regarding a new multi-purpose room.

Thanks so much for participating. Over 80 people attended the meetings and we have a great list of thoughts and ideas as a result. Now we are in the process of sorting through the information.

Look for further updates along the way. If you missed the meetings this summer feel free to be in touch - either send us a note or give us a call.
