Capital Fund Campaign Kick-off

Preaching a sermon from Matthew 21:33-41 titled "Whose Vineyard Is It?", Dr. Bob Entner of TLC Ministries began our Capital Fund Campaign at both the 8:20 and 11:00 worship services. The sermon centered on the subject of stewardship, and the responsibility we have to properly manage what God has entrusted to each of us.

At the evening service, Dr. Entner gave an overview of what will take place over the next few months as each family seeks how God will have them involved. There was an emphasis on the need for sacrificial giving, and the long-term importance of what we are about to begin. Dr. Entner also explained that this is not just a means of raising money, but an opportunity for spiritual growth for our church.

Well, it's a start . . .

The wait for dirt has so far gone unrewarded, but wait! There is something happening at the new church site. The first structure to be erected on the new site, a silt fence, is in place!

OK, this may not seem like very big news, but it's actually evidence that dirt is coming. (I know we've been hearing that since mid-December, but remember, we walk by faith, not by sight.) The silt fence is in place to contain any run-off from the dirt that is coming. So if the silt fence is up, the dirt can't be far behind. Stay tuned for further developments!

While we're waiting . . .

Many businesses have a phone system that lets a caller listen to music when they've been put on hold. Since this blog has been put on hold while we're waiting for our fill dirt to start arriving, I thought I'd offer a little music while we wait. For your listening pleasure, Timmy Burnette, Paul Thomas, and Justin Rhinehart. (Photo made 12/05.)
