Site: We received all the necessary permits and officially broke ground together as a church family on April 27! As of April 28, site work is underway—starting with erosion control and equipment mobilization. Next up: utility work and finalizing the building foundation design.

Building: The layout is finalized; foundation design on the structure has begun. Contracts have been awarded for the building, HVAC, AVL, and sprinkler system.

Action Items for the Church:
God has been working through all of this in His own way and timing, and we continue to see His hand in this.
1. Pray that the church body stays united in this effort and to align with God's desire to grow His kingdom in the community around us. Acts 5:39
2. Pray that God's will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Matthew 6:10
3. Pray for the building team, the finance team, the elders, and the church staff to lead humbly and serve God faithfully. Philippians 2:1-5; 2 Timothy 2
4. Pray about your own effort for the building project. There will be a large effort needed for volunteer work during the construction phase, and we must prepare our hearts for the service ahead. Matthew 9:37-38; Nehemiah 3
