Fellow members of Heritage,

It gives us great honor to serve you as your new Building Committee Chairmen.  One can only delight in the gleam of promise of what is in store for our church body.  Having embraced the vision of the pastor, there’s no doubt that by the Hand of God, blessings are to come, lives will be impacted, souls will be enlightened, and the change arising at 2501 Fox Mill Road will alter the secular focus of this our community forever.  The mere thought is breathe taking: This very change is forthcoming! 

Many of you are probably aware that we, The HFC Building Ministry, have been working diligently to acquire the necessary permits that will allow us to start construction right here; on these our home premises within the next few months.  For additional update, take a look:

• We have selected LeMay Erickson Architects (they have submitted construction documents into the county for Building Permit Application).
• We have met with consultants and made selections for our kitchen equipment.
• We have met with consultants and selected lighting arrangements and equipment for the sanctuary
• We have selected the type of HVAC system.
• We have selected Scott Long as our general contractor.
• We have met with the Pew Representatives.
• The Site Plan is approximately 90% approved by the Fairfax County.  Once approved and permits are in place, we will be submitting documents into V-Dot and Bonding for the county.
•  Fairfax County Water Authority has approved 2/3 of their process and we are projecting to have complete approval with regard to FCWA by 12/21/07.
• We have secured a location for our interim space and we anticipate readiness for service by mid February.

Respectfully,
