Last October, Dale and I installed a new ceiling-mounted projector which required us to crawl up into the attic above the sanctuary. Of course, I saw exactly what I expected to see - ceiling joists, roof trusses, insulation, and a web of electrical wires and conduit.
Having had the benefit of a father and a father-in-law who were both carpenters by trade, and having had the privilege of being involved in the construction of several buildings myself, I naturally began to consider the sacrifice of time and effort that had been invested to provide our congregation with a worship facility. That sacrifice came primarily, if not exclusively, from members of our congregation who realized that their efforts would achieve eternal benefits for their generation and generations to come. And that realization must be credited to God working through the Holy Spirit in the hearts of his people.
