Mid-December work continues with pouring of the playground's retaining wall, grading of the parking lot (including a new driveway connection to the adjoining property), prep and pouring of the fellowship courtyard, and installation of the final ground floor doors & windows at the fellowship entry.

Interior work in the 2nd half of December includes laying of an "old fashioned" tongue-and-groove subfloor in the chapel; downstairs, the fellowship hall stage and its removable sections concealing the baptistry are topped with oak hardwood; bathrooms are outfitted with partitions, sinks and vanities; fire-rated doors are installed between the original 1920's building and the addition at every level; the elevator starts to look like an elevator with installation of door frames and assembly of the cab.

Early December's interior highlights include installation of drop-ceiling grid and lighting, cabinetry, and fellowship stage flooring. Upstairs, the chapel's drywall is completed and installation begins on chapel flooring structure and ductwork.
