What To Prepare For A Church Building Project

By Stella Gay


Creating something big is never easy. It requires planning and the right amount of funding to get something done. This is exactly why there is a need to assign various committees, along with their heads. They will be the persons who will lead the members and will oversee the progress of the project to make sure that things are taken care of according to the plan.

Having skilled personnel to manage specific aspect of the project is one thing. Getting the money to pay for them and the materials that has to be used is another issue. Church building project for example is one of those ventures that face a big challenge when it comes to seeking for funds. They rely on the money that they gather from the donations of the people and some sponsors.

Still, despite this challenge, we still see this as something that has to be done. Its more than just being a simple building. Its something that can benefit the whole community of believers in the area. When planning for any type of projects, here are some things that you can think about.

Professional architect. This person is the one who is mainly in charge of the technicalities when it comes to building it. The size, desing and the materials that will be used will all be managed by this professional. To ensure that you have your specifications followed, you should hire a competenet architect.

Volunteer labor. While you can ask for volunteers to do the legwork, you should also not set aside the idea of asking community members for volunteers. Not only will this help your church save money. It will also encourage camaraderie and cooperation among the people.

Insurance for the builders. One of the most important matters that the planning has to include will be the insurance. You will never know when accidents will happen. Of course we are praying for the best. But to make sure that everyone who will not have any problems in any hospital expense that an incident can incur, it is first to verify the presence of insurance.

Methods of securing the funds. We have mentioned before that there is a chance that the current funds that the church have is not enough. It will be of great help if activities like fund raising, concert for a cause, exhibits and the like could help the community raise some money to supply for the project.

Time table. Having one is important when it comes to assessing the needed money to pay for all the expenses related to labor. When you have a time, the architect can also make his assessment when it comes to the speed of the work. He or she can also tell you if the plan is doable or not. Should there be any discrepancies, you can make the necessary adjustments.

There is not shortcut to the success of any venture. You will have to work for it. Gather the heads of the department in the project and plan together.
