November 2 Building Update

Dear Calvary Petaluma, 

First, thank you for praying and fasting for last week’s meeting on Friday, and continuing to pray for this process of purchasing a home for our church. While we did not get the answer we were hoping for, we trust the Lord with the answers He provides. God promises not to withhold anything good from us, so we can be confident that if this building is a good home for our church, God will provide, and if it isn’t, it isn’t good for us. 

Here’s where we stand: 

• After originally hearing we would not need to, we have received confirmation that the building would need seismic retrofitting to upgrade the occupancy from office to assembly.  

• We are currently working with architects, structural engineers, and contractors to get a clear and accurate sense of the scope of that work, the time it would take, and the cost. 

• We hope to have all the solid information we need within the next few weeks, and we will be processing it all and communicating with you once we know what we’re dealing with. 

That’s where we’re at. Please continue to pray for God’s wisdom every step of the way, and let’s keep our hearts and hands open as we move forward in faith. 

Love, 
Pastor Zach
