Friday, September 14th

Noon to 8 p.m.

Saturday, September 15th

Dedication Sunday, September 16th

Meandering In & Around The Church

Spent a few minutes meandering into and around the church today. Took a few photographs of the pictures that are yet to be hung around the inside of the building. Also saw stacked chairs and other furniture that had been delivered. The organ bench is in place, light shades in the Relief Society Room are up and other furniture such as tables and chairs are being put into rooms. 

Many plants have been planted around the building and there are still more to plant. Lawn is yet to be installed around the sidewalks of the building, while hydro-seeding of the outlying area is yet to happen as well. It is all coming together and will be lovely for the open house.

Several More Landscape Photos

Just took these and wanted to share. Still lots to do.
Sod will be placed between the church and the sidewalks around the building where plants are not planted. The outer areas of the property will be hydro-seeded.

Landscaping is Happening -- More PhotosView

Today I took some photos of the partially completed landscaping. There are way too many plants for me to count and I am sure this will take a while. Beautiful so far. Enjoy seeing how this is taking shape.

Still to be planted

I really like this.

View of what still needs to be planted.

Not sure what is happening with the grass. Will be interesting to see what will be done.  Enjoy.

Plants and Trees Have Arrived

Yesterday as I  drove past the church property I saw that plants and trees were being unloaded from a large tractor trailer. I drove past this morning and took a few photos. Things will start moving fast today. It is really a lousy time to plant. Good thing there is irrigation watering installed to keep everything soaked. Here are some photos of the plants and trees and what was laid out this morning.

No New Information

I have no new information to post regarding what is happening with the landscaping or other aspects of the building completion. As soon as they are provided to me, I will post them. It might be fun for anyone visiting to look back through the blog and see how much has been done since this project began last year.

Nearing The Completion and Dedication

This week I have no new photographs. The sprinkler system has been tested this week along with installation of additional irrigation pipe. The inside of the church has many small details that are being completed, including touching up of paint, and lighting in rooms. The septic system is being tested as are electrical systems that run the AC and Heat.


Once the outside landscaping is complete and the detailing of projects within the building is done, it will be turned over to the church. As I understand it, the area facilities people will then put various paintings of the Savior in the building, add the materials to the library and do any additional work in preparation for the open house and dedication.


If I am allowed to, I will try and get photographs of the interior and exterior of the building up on this blog before the actual open house.

More Finishing Touches

It has been over a week since the last photos. Lamp posts are installed. The parking area has been completely paved. Stucco work is continuing on the chapel. The organ has been installed. Yet to come: painting the parking spots, landscaping and all of the small details inside of the building.

Lamp Posts are installed

Stucco is still being applied on the front and  above entrances to the building.

Beautiful new organ

No more staring at the wall

THERE IS NO BAPTISMAL FONT in the building so this was funny to me. I believe this office will be Bishop Webb's of the Wenatchee River Ward.
