Clean-up Day!

Today was our first clean-up day at the former Harris-Sutton building - and it was AMAZING! I am so impressed with the people that God has already put together to begin forming what is already proving to be an incredible church.

The schedule was to meet at 8:00am with the intent to get as much done as possible before our planned quitting time at 2:00pm. With a LOT of work to be done, our focus was to clean the front [Sanctuary/auditorium], then the middle [Kids area] , then the back [future auditorium] if by some miracle, time permitted.

Well, as so often happens I am in awe of what God did through His people. [more on 'awe of God' soon] We had roughly thirty people come at various points, we attacked the building and by 11:00am - YES, ELEVEN AM... we were DONE! And when I say done, I mean done! The front, the middle, the back and even the three storage areas we didn't even consider doing were all cleaned up and ready for our next meeting on July 29th.

"But wait - there's more!"

A few tech-geniuses were able to figure out some very cool stuff AND a couple people stayed around a few hours identifying and marking circuit breakers for much of the building. WOW.

Thank you rock Bridge Chatsworth for serving Him this way on what I know to be a precious Saturday morning. You amaze me every time we are together and I thank God that I get to serve alongside you as we move along this road. While we continue to work out the details of the lease, our united front today serves to further His kingdom in Murray County.
