The construction team having lunch
Today was a banner day at First Baptist Church of Highland Park. The steelworkers have finished their work and yesterday the concrete was poured for the sanctuary floor of the new church. The tradition at Scott-Long Construction is to mark the event with a pig roast. Though we were new to their tradition, a group from Highland Park joined the workers and we marked the event with Prayer and Praise on the new concrete floor. I am grateful to God for this exciting moment and to witness it with my family was wonderful. The moment was sealed when Pastor Davis prayed. He prayed for the lost to know Christ as Savior, for the construction workers, our Highland Park church family, and the church universal. We departed the hill with happy hearts, and increased determination to go Faith Forward knowing FaithWorks.
