Listening is undervalued and overlooked these days, I think.<BR/><BR/>And Linguistfriend, i love your description of preconstruction as optimistic. Well said!

The replacement process lasted longer than expected, from the beginning of '94 until dedication of the new building at the end of '96, and the new church was more expensive than expected, partly because of requirements to make it wheelchair-accessible, etc. I trust that such applicable requirements have been investigated or you would not get your building permits. Your narrative just jumps to before construction, a nice optimistic period. <BR/> LinguistFriendLinguistFriendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02695715246663202212noreply@blogger.com
