...and the beat goes on

Work continues to progress on our church roof. For the past several weeks, we have been repairing the roof and having new shingles / gutters put on the sanctuary. God has been demonstrating His glory in all that has been taking place. The weather has been very cooperative. The workers have been extremely professional. The details have been ... interesting.
Due to dry rot, we have had to replace 6 feet along the eave - for the entire length of the building. Add to this the interesting fact that roofing materials today are 1/4" narrower than what is on our current roof, and you see how the costs could escalate to procure custom sized material. As God would have it, the lumber was not only easily obtained, but able to be delivered in under a week.
Tomorrow, the new boards are installed and next week the shingles will be nailed onto the new roof. Then, as the Lord sends rain, we will be prepared to praise His name in a Providentially provided dry place!
