PPI Office in Process

March 20, 2021 by Ken MacGillivray

While a pastor candidate filled the pulpit at First Baptist the past three Sundays, we made good progress on PPI’s first office/workroom. We’re converting our daughter’s, Katie’s, old bedroom. For now it’s the best place in our house for the PPI office.

When finished, the new office will provide an office and study for Ken and much needed shelving for PPI conference materials. Since we’re doing all the labor ourselves – with help from family members and friends of PPI – we’re able to build out the office/workroom at a fraction of the cost compared to hiring a contractor. We anticipate completing the project by Easter. Enjoy the in-process pictures!

FINALIZING THE PLAN – new paint, new flooring and natural hickory shelving.
What we started with – Katie’s creative paint work!
Rena made a template for a tricky cut-out of a vinyl plank.
Taking a short break after finishing the new floor. Notice the knee pads. 🙂
Our new floor will stand up to LOTS of conference supplies moving in and out of the PPI room.
Working on materials shelving. We got a great deal on rustic hickory from an Amish wood shop in Clare.
Sanding, sanding and more sanding! 🙂
On Saturday Rena painted industrial pipe that we will use as part of the shelving structure. More pictures to come!

Some Investment Advice

April 30, 2025 By Ken MacGillivray 2 Comments

I have some investment advice. It’s a sure thing, better than tech stocks, CDs or even gold. And it’s  simple: Lend to the Lord. He will repay whatever you loan Him with generous return. God inked that promissory note in Proverbs 19:17, “Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and He will […]
