Good progress made on volunteer bricklaying day at Haven Mission Click on headline for story with photo(s) - more photo(s) to be added By Ed Waggener Good progress was made with the volunteer effort to finish the brick facing on Haven Mission, now not-so-little church at 300 Merchant Street, Columbia, KY. The work day was held Saturday, May 2, 2014. The event was first suggested to pastor Jim Williams by Mark Selby, who had performed in the church, and who passes by the work in progress often going to and from his job at the Adair County Regional Jail. Five bricklayers, Billy McEachern, J.T. Meyer, John England, Jordan Schuler, and Gabriel along with Pastor Jim Williams, were supported by a whole cast of support people, from hod carriers to mud men to runners, food and beverage support - and those who just came to furnish the elan - or to observe and encourage, as Delbert Corbin, the long time pastor at the church, did. The bricklayers were working against a stack of 21,600 bricks. There's still a long way to go, and we haven't yet gotten an exact count of the number laid that day, but it was significant. Pastor Wiliams said that the contribution the group made was significant, as a financial aid to the congregation. At 40 cents per brick, the church was facing an $8,600 outlay, just for the the skilled craftsmans time. That help. But a more importantly, he said, was the benefit of having Christian fellowship with a group which came from many area congregations - from Kelleyville Community Churh, Great Oaks Ministries, Bearwallow UMC, Sparksville Baptist Church, and from the group which meets each Sunday at Harvest Cafe - organizer Mark Selby's Church. Helpers included Scott McEachern, Nicholas Selby, Garrielle Selby, Hope Selby, Ellen Hingle, Steve Chundy, and Steve Reha. This story was posted on 2014-05-19 03:27:52
