This week's update is a short one as we continue preparing to bring the building interior up to slab grade. The dirt crew is scheduled to return to the site on Wednesday, and we're hopeful conditions will allow them to continue bringing in, placing, and compacting the fill inside the building footprint.
As is often the case during Florida's rainy season, Mother Nature gets a vote! The site is currently high and dry, so we're ready to move as soon as conditions cooperate. In the meantime, coordination continues with the trades that will follow the dirt work as we prepare for the underground plumbing and electrical work that comes next.
While we wait for the next visible changes on the site, here's another look at where all of this work is leading us.
Our
beautiful new Church Home is being built for us in wisdom, love, and
divine timing and we are ready to receive it!

This Sunday: Leddy Hammock - It Works When I Work It |
|
Highlights:
Inspired by lyrics to “It Works when I Work It” by Sue Riley & Fred Bogert:
“It works, when I work it! My good comes pouring through.
It works, when I work it – these principles of Truth.
... I know that I am ready to receive …. If I trust my heart to lead, then love comes pouring through ….
My good will know my face.
I’m making room for miracles and saving room for grace.” |

Bring the Kids to Church Every Sunday!! |
|
After a long time coming, we’ve started something new—there’s now a kids table set up in the back every Sunday!
For this season, our services are all about being together as a family while we wait for our new building and dedicated kids spaces. It’s simple, but it feels like a really meaningful step forward.
Deanna has graciously stepped up to welcome and care for our kids each week. She’ll have coloring activities available, along with a couple of iPads for them to use. Kids are also welcome to bring a tablet or phone to enjoy quietly during the service.
A big thanks to Deanna for helping make this possible! |

Last Sunday's Shining Words:
“So what is to be done ...? Everything should be done for building up” (I Cor. 14:26).
We see the hole in the fabric that must be sewn. We see the way blockaded and we roll back the stone. We see the day beyond the horizon and we do what must be done. |

What is Emotional Freedom Tapping (EFT)
Your body is more powerful than you may imagine, filled with life, energy, and a compelling ability for self-healing.
Like acupuncture and acupressure, Tapping is a set of techniques that utilize the body’s energy meridian points. You can stimulate these meridian points by tapping on them with your fingertips, literally tapping into your body’s own energy and healing power.
Gather with a great group of positive and supportive folks with healing in mind!

"As a grateful student blessed to study with this extremely great expression of God, as a buddy and confidant, I am privileged to have seen this woman work in her life the principles she espouses. Seeing how well they worked for her and those she taught (who exercised these principles), I had to try them for myself, and she's absolutely correct when she says, 'It Works If You Work It.'
We are so much more than we think we are. We can do and be so much more than we think we can with so much less struggle and stress, anxiety and regret, if we are willing to raise the level of our consciousness…. Dr. Colemon can show you how. She showed me how when a blood vessel burst in my brain and I had two brain operations in ten days, and ten days later I was doing a commercial for Campbell's Soup….
You now have the opportunity to raise the level of your consciousness through the dedication to God's word and the power of your faith in the use of His word…. Your life will never be the same"--Della Reese (in the foreword to Open Your Mind and Be Healed by Johnnie Colemon). |
