The concrete pump arrived at 7.30am, followed by truck after truck of ready-mix.
It was a truly amazing sight as the pump operator swung the boom by remote control. The men at the working end connected extra pipes and finally a flexible tube, which 'glooped' out the concrete at an amazing rate.
Starting at the far end of the building they poured the floor in the rector's office and then the office block, before pouring the entrance and verandah. This is the view down the verandah from the church end.
This is the view from the office end.
And here is the entrance after the floor was poured.
This picture shows the new church 'mid-pour'. To get an idea of the depth of the concrete, look at the man standing in the concrete.
We need your prayers for the roof of the church - getting the design right has not been easy and we are now getting a tad frustrated! It must be ordered soon!
