Delays, caused by inclement weather and having to dig a deeper foundation on the site than anticiâ€" pated, pushed back the original completion date of the church from the end of June to Oct. 1st. But with all that behind it, the church is forging ahead and has invited Dr. Marian Best â€" Moderator of the United Church of Canada â€" to speak at the dedication service slated for Nov. 13th. Excitement was in the air at the site this week, as the yearâ€"long proâ€" ject draws to a close. Workers were busy sanding the red oak hardwood platform for the altar, painting, and adding finishing touches. _ By Cheryl Elliot _ @ SPECIAL TO THE NORTH NEWS Some workers are putting in 10 hours a day to make sure that everyâ€" thing is done on time, accordmg to Henry Lopuszko, the supervisor working for general contractors Century Inc. This is the second church Lopuszko has worked on, but this one is a little different. "I built one church in Richmond Hill," he said. "That was a steel structure, but this one is a wooden structure." The 17,000 sq. ft. building feaâ€" tures a sanctuary which seats 400 people and a narthex that holds an additional 200. It is also the first time Lopuszko has worked with a 66â€"foot long truss â€" the main beam which he pointed out across the roof of the sanctuary. In addition, there are three classâ€" rooms, a nursery, meeting rooms, a large warmâ€"up kitchen, and the church‘s administrative offices. The multiâ€"purpose fellowship room at the rear of the church can expect much community use of its threeâ€" quarter size basketball court. It can also be used for volleyball; and in the future, it could be setâ€"up for badminton. Al Chamney â€" facilities chairperâ€" son â€" boasts that because of "the exceptionally high and clear ceiling of the gym, there is no chance of a volleyball being caught in the duct work" â€" a challenge to all! "It is going to be a really beautiâ€" ful and at the same time a very functional building," said Rev. Bill Brown, who has served at the Glen Abbey United Church for the last five years. "We hope it will serve the community well." Friday nights are reserved for the church‘s youth group. Currently, there are 20 members, who meet on Sundays at Pilgrim Wood School where the church holds its services. "Once the building opens and all the facilities are there," said Brown. "I expect the youth group will take off." The Nottinghill Coâ€"operative Preschool â€" formerly St. Hilda‘s Coâ€"operative Preschool â€" is calling the new church home.
