Progress of the construction of the school
By Linus Tigiti, SJ
A Week of Rain and Progress
In the world of construction, time flows like a powerful river, carrying us steadily toward our goals. This week, even as rain graced our site, it also brought forth significant advancements in our library building project.
Against the backdrop of unpredictable weather, our committed team has achieved remarkable progress. The library’s columns have been successfully erected, providing essential support and marking a crucial milestone in our journey. These columns are more than mere structural elements; they symbolize a pivotal moment in our timeline, allowing for the vital curing period that will fortify their strength and resilience.
As we reflect on this progress, we are reminded that “patience is a tree whose root is bitter, but its fruit is very sweet.” With each day, we cultivate not only a building but a space that will nourish minds and enrich our community for years to come.
Enhanced Security Measures for the Jesuit Community House
Security is an essential consideration. Initially, the windows were fitted solely with aluminum glass. However, after reflecting on the importance of safety, we realized the significant risk of someone breaking a window and entering the home.
In collaboration with our contractor, we have now added protective metal grills to all the ground floor windows. This upgrade not only enhances security but also alleviates previous concerns. Life in the Jesuit Community House will now flourish in humble spaces that foster greater peace of mind, knowing the windows are secure. This thoughtful approach balances aesthetic appeal with the crucial need for safety, creating a safe environment for everyone.
