Concrete News:
They poured the screen wall for the non-RT RTUs (that’s “non-rooftop Rooftop Units” for all the new people on this update). In other words, the machines that normally sit on top of a roof will instead be hiding behind this concrete wall at ground level.
Still makes zero sense, but hey—acronyms keep the mystery alive.
Bonus points if anyone can parkour from the top of this wall onto the porta-potty.
(I’m kiiiiiiiiidding, I’m kidding! Please don’t…)

THIS, folks, is our brand-new chin-up bar.
Competitions start right after church on Sunday.
Winner gets to drive Pastor Eric’s car for a week!!
(Kiiiiiiidding again. But admit it—you pictured it.)
I’m telling you (Kate!), that stack of wire materials looks exactly like chicken coop supplies.
Maybe the real Master Plan is to raise money by selling farm-fresh eggs out of the new Worship Center lobby.
Fundraising idea #27: pay $5 to egg the pastors.
(Disclaimer: I have not run this idea by the Elders yet. Approval pending.)
Awwwwww! How cute. They took the training wheels off our concrete screen wall!
(And now, our porta-potty parkour course is complete! I mean… ahem… I would never actually do something like that. I definitely wouldn’t think about riding my scooter down the ramp, through the little wall openings, onto the screen wall, over the porta-potty, and landing on the Bat Cave. Nope. Wouldn’t even cross my mind.)
I was taking this picture to show you the screen wall from another vantage point.
But let’s be honest—those spikes are clearly the next challenge in the porta-potty parkour course.
Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! They’re putting up scaffolding!!
I’m telling you, I did NOT go into this update planning a parkour course.
It just happened.
Like destiny.
Or predestination.
Does anyone else think of those old Family Circus comics when they think of parkour??
THAT was the original parkour.
I thiiiink those green things are the air ducts?? But honestly, they look way too perfect for the next stage of our porta-potty parkour course.
(You know… the classic action-movie scene where somebody’s crawling through the ducts with a lighter. Yeah, that.)
Since you all voted YES on keeping the shaky-cam… here ya go!!
(Okay, technically only 3 people voted yes, but no one said no—so by church-committee rules, the yesses carried the floor!)
And last but DEFINITELY not least – check out this drone shot!!
(Photo courtesy of Rafe. Who you have to meet. Because he’s cool.)
You know who else is cool? And would probably be great at parkour?
Jesus.
I’m just sayin’.
About These Updates
This is a casual, behind-the-scenes look at the Worship Center construction at Trinity. I’m Krista Gordon, Communications Director, armed with a phone camera and curiosity, a pretty consistent track record of confusing water pipes with electrical things, and an AI buddy who helps turn my construction confusion into comedy.
I may not know much about construction, but here’s one thing I do know: as Pastor Eric often reminds us, “Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.” (Psalm 127:1). Watching this Worship Center rise right outside our offices is a tangible reminder that our true foundation is built on Christ alone.
To Him be all the glory!
