It's Too Cold to Work!

This Thursday and Friday have been the coldest days of the year so far, so not much work could be done. Each day registered temperatures below zero, and wind chills that made it feel like the teens and 20's below zero. As this post goes to publication (12:30 PM), it is currently -8 degrees outside, with a wind chill of -19 degrees. So here are some pictures of the progress made so far, sans construction workers.

Century 2.2 Building Project

The "2.2" refers to the fact that in 2010 Riverview is working on its second century of existence - and is already in the second decade of that century. "2.2" also refers to the theme scripture of the project - Second Timothy 2.2: "The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also."

The Century 2.2 Project will provide handicapped access throughout our facilities, increase foyer space, provide more classroom space with greater flexibility, improve overall building security, add fire sprinkler service to the entire building, and lay the ground-work for increasing the size of our Fellowship Hall and the updating of our kitchen facilities.

This site will chronicle the progress of Riverview's Century 2.2 Building Project. You can find past entries and photos of the project below. Click on the images you see to be taken to an enlarged version. Older photos and information can be found in the "Blog Archive" below. Check back often, because new photos and information about the project will be added regularly. And please remember to pray for Riverview, its people, and the Century 2.2 Project.
