TIME TO BUILD
The Bible says “It is impossible to please God apart from faith” (Hebrews 11:6). We have to believe in what we don’t see, visualize the future and trust that God will come through. God answers prayers. As a church family our persistence of bold faith matters. We do it because we love Him, we believe in Him, and we want to spiritually grow together in faith.
The Fund (Faith) Raising Committee
Is initiating its Phase 2 strategic plan to help with financing. We plan to have a greater on-line presence and participation of volunteers – especially in visitation. We are working on a brochure and a large artistic rendition of the new campus. If you have any questions or suggestions please contact one of the committee members – Sandy Carosella, Susie Bautch or Victor Barton. We (you all) have raised $171,000 so far and “We are singing at the top of our lungs, we’re so full of answered prayers.” –Psalms 13:6 (msg)
Audio Visual Team Is currently meeting with AV design companies obtaining bids for designing and installing an AV and security system for our new church and school. Design meetings and bids from 3 companies will be complete by the end of next week and a company will be selected to progressively work with our electrical engineer and perform the installation. If you have any audio-visual or security questions or suggestions, please contact Ron Johnson, Chairman.
Total Funds Given For Relocation
