    First Baptist Church Construction Project Halted After Two Workers Hurt - March 25, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Construction Accident - 6p

    Construction Accident - Noon

    PANAMA CITY - A construction project at a downtown Panama City church came to an abrupt halt Tuesday after an accident involving the workers. Investigators say the two men were repairing the bell tower at First Baptist Church on Harrison Avenue when they fell on a power line.

    Lynn Vannocker was driving to her Harrison Avenue travel agency around 8 A.M. Tuesday when she saw something unusual.

    "Saw the firetrucks, saw the police officers, and just really didn't know what was happening. So like everyone else, we just stopped and asked," said Vannocker.

    Panama City police say two employees with Quality Plus Services were completing concrete repairs on the First Baptist Church tower, when the project took a turn for the worst.

    While construction crews were lowering the scaffolding from one level to another, they lost control and ended up making contact with a power line.

    Panama City police and firefighters reached the men on the scaffolding. They had to perform CPR on one of them, who went into cardiac arrest.

    The other was suffering from 3rd degree burns. They lowered the men to the ground, where paramedics took them to Bay Medical Sacred Heart.

    Ann Berkebile Baither [1930-2014]; Church volunteer also horse enthusiast - March 25, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Published: Monday, 3/24/2014

    BY MARK REITER BLADE STAFF WRITER

    Ann Berkebile Baither, an Ottawa Hills resident who was a volunteer at St. Michaels in the Hills Episcopal Church and past board member of Sunset House, died Saturday in Lakes of Monclova Health Campus in Monclova Township. She was 83.

    She died from complications following a cardiac procedure she received about two weeks ago, according to her daughter, Martha B. Conrad.

    Mrs. Baither grew up in South Toledo and lived most of her adult life in Ottawa Hills. She belonged to the Garden Club in the village, was a member of the Altar Guild at St. Michaels Church, and served on the board at Sunset House, Mrs. Conrad said.

    She was born Aug. 7, 1930, in Toledo to Elizabeth and Orris Berkebile. Her grandfather, John H. Berkebile, was a prominent Toledo building contractor who directed the construction of many landmark structures, including Scott and Waite high schools, the former Willys-Overland Motors Inc., and numerous other schools and churches.

    He entered the business in 1888 with Henry J. Spieker and held the title of president from 1914 to 1922. During that time, the old Toledo Edison Building, the Toledo Museum of Art, the old Toledo Public Library, the Toledo Club, and Collingwood Presbyterian Church were built by the firm. He left Spieker and organized his own general contracting company with his son, Orris Berkebile, in 1922 under the name of J.H. Berkebile and Sons.

    Mrs. Conrad said her mother was very proud about the landmarks that were constructed under the direction of her father and grandfather.

    Mrs. Baither graduated in 1948 from Maumee Valley Country Day School. She attended Stephens College in Columbia, Mo., and transferred to Indiana University in Bloomington.

    While at IU, she met James D. Greek. They were married on Nov. 10, 1951. Mr. Greek, who was a purchasing agent for AP Parts Corp., died in a car accident on the Indiana Turnpike near Angola on Oct. 1, 1957.

    the Yasmin Church - March 25, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    03/25/2014 09:42 INDONESIA West Java, Islamists block construction of a Catholic Church by Mathias Hariyadi Fundamentalists target Church of St. Stanislaus Kostka in Cibubur, Bekasi regency. The local court points to danger of sectarian violence", gives in to intimidation and stops the project. The priest presents all of the necessary permits and confirms: "The construction will continue, so far 70% of the structure built".

    Jakarta (AsiaNews) - Under pressure and intimidation from Islamic extremists, a civil court in West Java revoked the building permit - the infamous Izin Mendirikan Bangunan, IMB - for the Catholic Church of St. Stanislaus Kostka in Cibubur, Bekasi regency. During the hearing, a crowd outside the courtroom threatened the judges, shouting that their demands be met. The president of the court Edi Firmansyah decided to revoke that permission to avoid episodes of "sectarian violence" between different religious communities. This is just the latest episode in a long series of violations and abuses of religious freedom, which have characterized the recent history of Indonesia since the end of the Suharto regime. The phenomena have increased in recent years under the Yudhoyono presidency. The Head of State is accused of being overly soft with Islamic extremists.

    Judges of the Pengadilan Tata Usaha Negara (PTUN) - the local administrative court - revoked the permit issued in 2012 by the Bekasi mayor Rachmat Effendy. The ruling is the result of a lawsuit brought by Islamic extremist groups in Jatisampurna in a class action with other groups from several other cities in West Java.

    The new church was built under the patronage of the parish of Saint Servatius of Tongeren , in Kampung Sawah , approximately 10 km from the area of construction. Speaking to AsiaNews, the parish priest Fr. Rudianto explains that he followed all the legal procedures to obtain the IMB: "All procedures were properly done and all parties were also involved. We have all recorded videos to prove that nothing wrong or 'illicit' gestures have been exercised". He also accuses extremist groups, which have opposed the construction of the church of "hostile acts" against the Christian community, fomenting riots and divisions in society.

    Local sources said that there is a progressive increase of tensions in the area, with dozens of extremists ready to "seal" the construction site, the building is still under construction and about 70% of the overall structure has been completed, as confirmed by the parish priest Fr . Rudianto . The project will go ahead, he adds, because the judgment that annulled the IMB has not imposed the halting of the project.

    Indonesia is the most populous Muslim nation in the world. Increasingly however, it has become the scene of attacks or episodes of intolerance against minorities, whether they are Christians, Ahmadi Muslims or belong to other faiths. Aceh is the only Indonesian province where Sharia (Islamic law) is enforced, yet, in many other areas of the country, a more radical and extreme vision of Islam is spreading among ordinary Indonesians.

    Certain rules such as the infamous building permit have been used to prevent the construction of Christian places of worship or stop construction already underway, as was the case for the Yasmin Church in West Java. Catholics are a small minority of about seven million, or 3 per cent of the population. Although the country's constitution recognises religious freedom, Catholics have been the victims of violence and abuse.

    Highland Church of Christ at 400 N. Houston Levee Road in Cordova has filed a $3 million permit with the city-county Office of Construction Code Enforcement to expand its church campus.

    'Chief cook and bottle washer' helps mark 50th - March 24, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    She was working at a florist's shop until she was old enough to go nursing, when by chance she met a girl who was ''a Mormon''.

    ''I had never seen anyone who was a Mormon before. She was so securely happy. That's what struck me.''

    A friendship blossomed and after a while, Mrs Marshall said the girl invited her to meet her friends, who used to gather at St Clair Beach on Saturdays.

    ''They didn't believe in alcohol, cigarettes or swearing. There was an aura of goodness about them.

    ''I think they went to the beach as a good clean Saturday activity.''

    When she was invited to join them at their church one day, she said it was a great shock.

    ''They were meeting in very humble circumstances. It was upstairs in an unused government building. It was dingy - not what I was used to.

    ''But it was the sincerity, the wholesomeness of the people . . .''

    She joined the church in 1947, and later became an integral part of the construction of what is the present day chapel on Fenton Cres, in St Clair.

    Botkinburg church rebuilt a year after devastating tornado - March 22, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    BOTKINBURG On the morning after an EF2-rated tornado tore through his church last April, reducing much of the structure to rubble, Ester Bass stood by the devastation and vowed to build back.

    Less than a year later, the 64-year-old Bass is proving to be a man of his word.

    The Botkinburg Foursquare Church, where Bass has served as pastor for about 17 years, will hold a grand opening of its new facility April 6, just four days short of the anniversary of the 2013 tornado that destroyed its previous incarnation.

    Bass isn't quite sure yet what words he'll deliver to the congregation that Sunday morning. But he expects it will incorporate themes he's experienced over the past year about finding the strength to overcome a terrible loss.

    "It's all by the grace of God that we're here and where we're at now," Bass said. "If he can do that with how he's worked, then he can do anything in our lives. That's the focus."

    The tornado touched down in the small Van Buren County town north of Clinton the afternoon of April 10, 2013, destroying much of the church, taking the roof off an adjacent home, obliterating a nearby residence and damaging about 30 other structures. Four injuries were reported, but none was life-threatening.

    That was a Wednesday and the church still held service the following Sunday. A large tent was set up on the grounds of the damaged building, which was only 10 years old, and a crowd of 300 people came out to hear Bass' sermon. The congregation usually draws about 100.

    "That was just a way of showing them we're here to stay," Bass recalled in a recent interview. "We're going to come through this."

    It took a little while to get the wheels in motion, but a few weeks later, demolition and removal of the damaged church began. Before long, the structure was reduced to the concrete slab it had been built upon and rebuilding could commence.

    The congregation, meanwhile, didn't miss a Sunday. First, they moved to a gymnasium at a nearby church, but it didn't have air conditioning. Then, they moved to a church in nearby Dennard. The space was small, but it was enough for Bass to keep his congregation going in a tumultuous time.

    Thieves who stole equipment from church wanted - March 22, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    HOUSTON -

    Harris County sheriff's investigators are searching for the thieves who broke into a storage container behind a local church and got away with thousands of dollars worth of equipment.

    It happened at around noon Monday at the Church of Champions on Cutten Road in northwest Harris County.

    Church surveillance video shows two men getting out of a Ford F-150 pickup after backing up to the steel cargo container. Workers found the locks had been cut and more than $4,000 in equipment, including a welder and generator, were missing.

    The surveillance video shows men loading up the equipment and driving off.

    "I hope people return the stuff. If not, our church, we're a strong church," said church member Tremayne Dortch.

    Volunteers were using the tools to build an obstacle course beside the church.

    The equipment belongs to Sam Sann. Sann tried out for "Ninja Warrior," owns his own gym and wants to share his passion for fitness. He is building an obstacle course beside the church for the community.

    "I guess there are a lot of desperate people out there," said Sann, of IronSport. "Just get a real job instead of going around stealing people's stuff."

    If you recognize the men in the surveillance video, please call the Harris County Sheriff's Office or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS. You can remain anonymous and could earn a cash reward.
