Not another church

I was down at the site yesterday evening admiring the plot that will soon be our new church. A couple walking behind were talking and one said to the other 'what are they building there' to which the other replied 'a church'. 'What for ?........' I smiled.

At church yesterday Mike asked how many people had gone past the site to take a look at what was going on and there were many smiles. Certainly I have diverted my route home to travel past and see what is going on. Conscious of the fact that I know what is going on probably better than most its my job to let you know which is what this blog is all about.

The blog address is on the sign on site so anyone who really wants to know 'what are they building there' can find out.

As to the answer to the curious passer by's question the answer is simple.

There has never been a time when people have been so isolated an disenfranchised by the things of the world, crime, soaring fuel costs, credit jams and so on are troubling to everyone. What we will offer is a different way, a way to receive the good news of the gospel from cradle to grave.

When we open the building I will make it my personal mission to ensure that every passer by has the opportunity to make an educated decision as to why we exist.

Who knows I may even start a 'Now Were Open What are we here for' blog :-)
