CHAMPAIGN The new Church of the Living God in Champaign shines like the sun, but inside there's work to be done.

A lot of work, according to the church's pastor, Bishop Lloyd Gwin.

It's his prayer that the new building will be ready for worshipers sometime in 2015.

Inside the gleaming structure, workers are installing drywall, insulation and electrical systems.

Still to be installed: sprinklers, heating and air conditioning, lighting, plumbing for restrooms and, of course, carpeting and furniture.

But the building at the northwest corner of Fourth Street and Bradley Avenue is taking shape.
