5, 4, 3, 2, 1, .... and launch!

Today was a great day! We had no idea what to expect and frankly - we had little sleep because most of us were up thinking about it.

We got to the building at 8:00 AM. The band warmed up, the coffee was brewing, the building was in place, and here came the people. 255 people came and made a priority to be in worship with us.

There was a great attitude of worship and our community matched our vision - a multi-ethnic urban work. It is clear God has us here to do more than repair a facility, but restore a community.

Thank you to all the people who were in prayer and supported our ministry. Don't leave us now - however. It takes a village to raise a child and the church universal to give stability to this new baby church. Keep us in your prayers and stay connected. We need you know more than ever.
