Surreal it is to finally hear songs of praise resounding in all corners of our new worship centre, as our first prayer meeting was held earlier in July since we acquired the place.
Our first ‘salo-salo’ in the place is pansit and ensaymada; soon, this will be a place for more get-togethers with tummies and souls satisfyingly fed. We also finally got the building permit approval that allows us to begin the renovation phase. It’s amazing how the Lord has moved the past few months however there is still a lot of work to do.
What’s next?
- Praying and looking for a contractor that fits our budget & timeline for the renovation
- Aiming for 150 solicitation letters to go out to friends and community outside church ( if you have somebody in mind, just do it and let God move!)
- Every little thing helps to raise funds: eager members have been selling ice candy, atchara, bake goodies not just in church but with their officemates
- Soon to launch Fundscript gift card fundraiser – keep your gas money or groceries budget or home renovation spending on track thru gift cards while raising funds for a worthy cause (more details to follow)
