Yeah, I know. It's been snooze city here at Woodland Builds lately. But that's only because most of what's been going on with the building project has been behind the scenes, away from my camera. You know, the boring stuff like planning, meetings with bankers, applying for various permits, selling our current building, etc. All very essential, but all very boring. Now, however, the action begins!
Sunday, October 7, 2007, Woodland Baptist Church finally broke ground on it's new building. As early as this week we should start seeing some activity on the site that actually looks like construction. From now until the building is completed, there should be interesting scenes for me to photograph, and for you to look at every week. Here's some scenes from Sunday's event (Click on photos to enlarge.) :
Pastor Alan adds "the back of a pick-up truck" to the long list of places that he has preached.
Some of the crowd that came to celebrate the event.
Amber Rhinehart sings at Sunday's ceremony.
Members of the Building and Grounds Committee, and the Design Team turn over the first dirt for the new building.
Woodland's oldest deacon, Vardy Fugate, assisted with the groundbreaking.

what an awesome day!!!
Awesome, not many churches have this great oppotunity.
So happy to see an update. I was wondering how things were progressing.
The groundbreaking is so exciting. I guess we all like tangible things to know there is progress.
Has your church building been sold?
Nice photos and enjoyed reading about it. It would seem odd to preach in back of a truck, but however you can get the word out. It doesn't matter where, it just matters what.
