A group of volunteers has constructed walls and put a roof on the Big Sioux Baptist Church’s new parsonage and worship center.
The crew, including eight volunteers from South Carolina, worked last week to enclose the 82-foot-by-30-foot building so that other work can be done inside this winter. The building will replace a set of trailer houses that have been used for the small congregation for many years. Those will be taken off the property once the building is completed, and eventually, a new church is planned for the site.
“It’s not for us. It’s for the Lord. This is his work,” said Mark Goldfuss, who was in charge of the volunteer crew. Goldfuss has a framing business in Greenville, S.C., and a partner who keeps crews working there, which allows him to volunteer. The group goes all over the world and most recently was overseas volunteering.
