Using a Dual Approach
The best way to conduct a church building project is to assess the ministerial needs of the congregation, make building designs that match those needs and then pray that the money will come to pay for that project. Another way is to project how much money you can raise, and then decide how to spend it. The Facilities Committee is doing BOTH approaches simultaneously. We have assessed the needs of our aging buildings and have made plans to upgrade them in such a way that our ministries can thrive, both today and in the future. But we also will be conducting a “Feasibility Study” to determine the amount of financial support we can anticipate. Even Jesus mentions this common-sense fact: “Which of you wishing to construct a tower does not first sit down to calculate the cost to see if there is enough for its completion?” — Luke 14:28

Please continue to use the Prayer Cards we distributed, so that our building project will meet with success. Extra Prayer Cards are still available at the Church entrances. Thank You!
