Ron & Debbie Galbreath missionaries to Japan are in a building phase with a new church.
The first hurdle they had to overcome was finding land to buy and then raise the finances to buy it. Land in Japan is hard to find and is very expensive. They said the past several months have been crazy as they work with the city, architects, and civil engineer on the church plans. They hoped to have started construction already but they are still not ready. They said the church plans are almost done, all they need now is to finish the electrical and heating systems plans. They said the site plans are complete. They are now waiting on budgeting. They said they have to have all the costs together before submitting the plans to the city. They said the city would not allow amendments. Once submitted, it will take 3 to 4 months before they get approval to start construction. They are hoping for April or May to get things started. They have been working on the land removing trees and the stumps. So they can start in the spring when the snow melts.
They said that doing anything in Japan is a lot different from the States, lot more paper work and the cost is a lot more. They said once they get approval to start they will need construction team to help. Ron & Debbie Galbreath missionaries to Japan are in a building phase with a new church.
