parking lot

In case you missed the meeting or had not heard, the new parking lot was approved at the All Church Conference last Thursday night. The new lot will provide about 100 new spaces and when opened, will put an end to off site parking at the Cancer Center until we need to park there again. :-) A contract with the construction company needs to be signed and then the plans will go to the city for approval. Contributions for the parking lot are requested.

Now, here is the really exciting thing to me. About 40 people showed up for the conference on a Thursday night. There were many questions, but when it was time to vote, the vote was unanimous. You are an awesome church family. You are so together and so committed to your purpose. I thank you for your determination and your willingness to inconvenience yourselves for the sake of the gospel. That reminds me of the definition of spiritual maturity: "the being willing to set aside one's comfort or personal preference for the sake of the mission."

Anyway, thank you for being you.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.

That's great news. WCC does have an awesome "church family" and I'm so happy to be a part of it now. Although, I think I will miss the shuttle rides. I've met some wonderful people/families sitting there on the bus for the short trip down to the church. And the drivers are so accommodating and greet you with a great smile each morning. Riding never seems like a sacrifice or inconvenience to me--it's been a new and delightful experience.
