              Fellowship Building Project

Our new building was completed in March, 2004, less than a year after the start of construction in June, 2003. The first Sunday service was held there on March 28, 2004. H. Michael Bohnsack was the architect; J. L. Robinson was the Project Manager; and financing is through First Southern Bank. The architect has provided visual renderings for the planned building that include an enlarged view of the entrance, a view from the southwest, and a site overview. A Southern Illinoisan article described the anticipation felt within the congregation.  Below are some images showing stages in the project. Photos by Bob Lembcke, Stan Aydt, and Dave Christensen.
