Fulfilling an Exciting Vision
An Interview with Bryan Crostreet, Purdue Alum Class of 1982 and Project Manager for the New Building
Q. How have you seen God’s provision and faithfulness throughout the construction process?
A. Where do I start? I’ve seen God’s hand in this project like none other. The challenges were no small thing. The logistics have been quite daunting at times, including working through FAA approvals, working and parking restrictions, student safety, off-site coordination, a desire to be good neighbors, street closure requirements, and many others. Because of the restricted site and the new building being within five feet of the property line on two sides, plus having two highly populated residence facilities within the “fall zone” of the architectural panel erection, completing the demolition and precast wall panels during the summer break was absolutely critical…and then COVID-19. The threat of delay caused a good deal of anxiety, but God is in control. We’re not.
God has a way of making sure He gets the glory when He works. It has been very clear to me that this is God’s plan for the work at PCCH. The perceived obstacles that cause(d) anxiety have resulted in being driven back to total dependence and trust in Him and His sovereignty to accomplish His purpose in this place. When this facility is complete and the work of PCCH is restored to this house, God will receive all the glory because it is clear that He is the One who made it happen.
