Building Committee Monthly Briefing (June) 建堂委員會進度報告 (六月)



Building Committee Monthly Briefing - June // 建堂委員會進度報告 ~ 六月

1. Building Development Committee (BDC) is still waiting for the revised Church Exterior Drawing from Architect. 建堂委員會仍然等候建築師呈交修改後的教會外觀設計圖。

2. Project Schedule Update // 項目進度更新

a. Still waiting for City of Richmond (COR) to approve our Environmentally Sensitive Area
Development Permit (ESADP) application, which had been submitted at the end of last year. BDC
had inquired David Brown (COR Planner who is in charge of our permit application) and he replied
that our application has been circulating in the Engineering and Traffic Control Department for
comment. Few month ago, Engineering Department raised their concern about the water flow and
required us to submit engineer report for that. COR received our engineering report for this and
review it together with their capital project ( water main upgrade in the area). According to David,
up to this moment, he doesn't have any feedback from these two Departments.

去年底已向列治文市政府呈交環境敏感區開發許可證 (ESA DP) 申請,批核仍然進行中。建 堂委員會致電列治文市府城市規劃主管 Mr. David Brown 查詢,他回覆說我們的申請已於數 月前交往工程拓展部及交通控制部傳閱索取意見。 之後,工程拓展部向我們提出用水流量的 提問並要求我們的工程師提交有關資料。及後,他們將我們數月前所呈交的工程師報告加入 整體發展項目中(提升該區供水設施)一起考慮。 截至目前為止,仍未收到這兩部門的回 覆。

b. Thanks to our Lord who listen to our prayers , we have assigned a Structural Engineer for our project. Employment of Mechanical and Electrical Engineers are anticipated to finalize by the end of this month. We are still waiting for the ESA DP approval from City of Richmond(COR), once we acquire the ESA DP, we will submit our Building Permit (BP) to the City of Richmond (COR). Certain delay is expected in this stage, expected completion date would be approximately 8 months after issue of ESA DP.

感謝神垂聽禱告,結構工程師已經落實聘任、而機械工程師及電機工程師的人選亦可於本月 底落實。 建堂委員會仍然等候環境敏感區開發許可證 (ESADP) 的批出,一旦許可證批出, 會立刻申請建築許可證 (BP)。 建築工程預計會出現延遲,若一切順利,實際完工日期約於許 可證批出後的第八個月。


3. Prayer Requests // 代禱事項:

a Let us all pray for the unity of our church; 為教會同心合一禱告;

b Pray for church leaders and Building Development Committee (BDC), may God provide them the with wisdom to carrying out this project ; 為教會領袖及建堂委員會禱告,求神賜下智慧及幫助去策劃建堂項目;

Prayer Walk Signup


We want to encourage brothers/sisters to sign up for prayer walk for the building project.  Here are the details:

WHY?Prayer walking is the practice of praying on location, a type of intercessory prayer that involves walking to or near a particular place while praying. Being close to the community and the people there allows us to “pray nearer to pray clearer" - just as Jesus experienced in Matthew 9.36: "When He saw the crowds, He had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd."
WHO?Group of friends, by small groups, or by ministry teams (deacons, praise team, greeters)
WHERE?The site (9251 Beckwith), neighbours (residential, casino, skytrain), and/or City of Richmond
WHEN?Every 2nd Saturday/Sunday or 4th Saturday/Sunday of the month
WHAT?Simply pray for the places/people. Or you can use the updates @ Building Blog.http://rpgmbcbuilding.blogspot.ca/
QUESTIONS?Contact Pastor Will / william.hui@rpgmbc.org

How?

You can sign up on the sheet from Brittany.  Or here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10UBUINrmzk2QxeR6D0QY_d12F7jshwutpfFLuA9j-_M/edit?usp=sharing
