Important County Hearing


July 2nd is an important county hearing concerning the building being constructed next to our property. Based on the outcome of this meeting, construction will immediately begin and the completion date is estimated to be 7-9 months out.

This is of interest to us for two reasons…

1) The owner has approached us about renting space in this new building as a meeting place for our church. This will give us a 24/7 building to use until we save the money to build on our own property.

2) Whether or not we rent space, this new project is immediately adjacent to our property, and as part of the development a shared driveway will be constructed that will give us access to our land. So it moves our property one step closer toward an eventual building.

Building Update



What’s New on the Building?
We are still moving forward on a new building; But it may look different than what we first imagined! The owner of the building we looked at has asked us to consider a different building, one that’s even closer to the property.

A little background:
The owner has been trying to construct a building on the lot immediately adjacent to the south side of our property. In fact, we talked to him about this project a year ago, but it was stuck in the county. Well, it’s not longer stuck. While we’ve been praying about his existing building, suddenly this other project came to life, and he’s hoping to start construction in 5 weeks.

In the meantime –
In the meantime the owner has had another development. He has received an offer on the building we held our service in. It came from a large company that wants to take the offices and all the warehouse space. (including the portion we want). It’s pretty much an offer the owner can’t refuse, so he is planning to move forward with them on the “APC” building. He is offering us first chance at this new building.

Keep Praying -
We are still working hard to get more information, and we’ll update you as information becomes available. The most important activity now is prayer. We need God to go before us and guide us to the place that’s right for us.
