Work on Solomon's Portico in the Jerusalem Temple

I. Solomon's Portico in the Jerusalem Temple
Solomon’s Portico was where Jesus came when he was twelve years old. He would ask questions to teach even at the young age of twelve.
Currently, work is in progress to build Solomon's Portico in the Jerusalem Temple. The brick work is all new and is less than nine months old. Don Bradley is using the scrap bricks from the Kennedy Furniture Company in Lucedale, MS. The furniture company burned down around 1996 and was the first brick structure in the Lucedale area. After the scrap bricks were cleaned up, they were ready to be used to rebuild the Temple, Solomon's Portico, and the wall around Jerusalem.

II. City of Jerusalem
Along with the work in progress on Solomon's Portico, work is being done to give Jerusalem a face lift as it has been sitting out in the weather for over fifty years and is looking fallen down. The scrap brick has been used to rebuild the wall around Jerusalem. Along with the wall, the city will be fixed up, painted, and receive some gardening work. We expect the work on Jerusalem to be completed within the next 2 to 3 months.
