In thirteen weeks we will be entering our new place of worship. Pumped, oh yea! It has been an incredible journey as we have seen hundreds of volunteers work tirelessly on this project. It has been estimated that we, along with hundreds of volunteers outside our church, have saved the church over a half a million dollars by doing the work ourselves. I stand in awe of so many who are so willing. Every nail driven, mud spread, paint applied, insulation installed, tile laid, grid placed, floor swept, room cleaned, wire run, light installed, pipe jointed, door hung, jam leveled, unit installed, wall sanded, supplies picked up, truck unloaded, carpet laid, wall sprayed, job completed has been for the glory of God. Lives will be changed in this building. All the glory goes to the One who called us to do the work. The people heard, obeyed, followed, gave and trusted.
There is still more work to do but with His help, we will make it and it will be great. We must remember that it is not about a building but a Savior. As my friend Lemuel said: "Buildings don't go to Heaven, People do." The reason we have worked for almost a year and a half is for His purpose and His Glory. It won’t be long now!!!!
