CTS – January 31, 2023

Construction of the new dormitory and dining commons are AHEAD OF SCHEDULE according to Gerald Branum. Positive weather patterns, excellent construction team and the availability of funds are propelling the project forward.  

Our appreciation goes to all those involved, the administrative leadership, construction management company and our giving and prayer partners. 

Supporting columns for the roof are being installed as we share these recent photos. Internal stairwells, which are precast concrete, are being put in place this week.

Local people will be seeing the beautiful roof construction taking place soon. The new roof line will complement the neighborhood. 

Once completed the building will soon become weather tight. 

The leadership team has made a strategic decision to increase the current construction contract to include the interior. The plan is to deliver a TOTALLY COMPLETED BUILDING in June, 2024.

January 25, 2023-CTS Update

Construction of the new dormitory and dining commons are AHEAD of Schedule. Positive weather patterns, an excellent construction team, and the availability of funds are propelling the project forward!

Our appreciation goes to all those involved, the administrative leadership, the construction management company, and our giving and prayer partners.

Supporting columns for the roof are being installed as we share these photos. Internal stairwells, which are precast concrete, were put in place this week.

Locals are getting ready for the roof construction to take place. The new roof line will complement the neighborhood.

Soon the building will be weather tight.

The leadership team has made a strategic decision to increase the current contract to include all the interior finishings. The plan is to deliver a totally completed building around June 2024. 

"Over the past year, the architectural drawings were completed and paid for with funding from Builders International donors.  Several adjustments were required to the plans before final approval was given by the government agency. 

All permits have been received and have been paid for by Builders’ partners.  

Strategic funding for the project includes the sale of property in Brussels owned by Assemblies of God World Missions.  A contract for the sale has been finalized with the closing pending. 

The bidding process is underway for the construction of the dormitory/cafeteria.  Upon the selection of a contractor, a timeline for construction will be announced."

- CTS Project Champion, Carley Touchstone

Thank you for your extravagant generosity and partnership in seeing this project furthered! Although we won't stop until the job has gone from "dirt to done." At this time, would you please pray for CTS? Especially for (1) the sale of the property, (2) favor in the bidding process, and (3) that it would be finished ahead of schedule!

God has great things in store for CTS!

Great news was received from Continental Theological Seminary in Brussels, Belgium on Friday, April 19, 2020!

Even though CTS is on lockdown (like the rest of us) because of this pandemic, we just received word that the architectural firm completed the design work and the building permit has been approved by the local government!

CTS New Dorm Rendering Fly Around

The Builders Dinner at GC19 was “very profitable” for Continental Theological Seminary (CTS). Dr. Dimitrov, President, did an outstanding job presenting the challenge of reaching Europe and beyond. The challenge was presented by Don Ross, Superintendent of NW Ministry Network. The result was $325,200 committed to construct a new dorm and cafeteria. The goal by August 1, 2020 is $500,000. 

CTS does not have enough dorm and apartment space on campus for the growing student body. Married students are being required to live off campus at a high cost to make room for single students. Would you consider making a faith commitment? If so, please let me know at carley@buildersintl.org. 

Jim Wellborn, a staff member at Builders, made some photos of the dinner to share with you. By the way, please feel free to post on this site as well as ask your Facebook friends to like this page.
