Saskatoon pastor looks at other options after Elim Church floods
When pastor Marvin Wojda made it to the church and saw the damage, he was shocked,
“It’s pretty hard to describe. It’s pretty shocking to walk into a disaster zone because that’s what it is, it’s disastrous,” he said.The building needs all new electrical panels, carpets, and even some drywall. It could take weeks to get the electrical panels alone, said Wojda. “We don’t really know because it’s so early on in the process. We have been told that it will be probably six weeks before power is restored to the building because we have to replace our power panels,” he said.Story continues below advertisement“My phone has been buzzing constantly of offers and fellow pastors in the city saying, ‘Hey, how can we help?'” said Wojda.
This weekend, Wojda is looking at moving his service to Circle Drive Church and will visit with them Saturday to see what is possible.
