How?

How will we do this project?  First of all, by praying.  By making sure we’re on track with our God, our Great Provider and Leader of our vision.  “The Lord Almighty is with us!”  Ps 46:7    there is no substitute for prayer, fasting and seeking God’s blessing and power.  Secondly, our Elders have chosen and assigned our Property Development Team to carefully strategize a complete Master Plan for our entire property.  In phases, this plan helps us meet the needs of our worship, children, recovery ministries, Preschool, etc.  Thirdly, we are communicating the vision, the needs and the plan to the people. Over and over again, we are reporting to them, praying with them, inspiring and encouraging them.  We also hope to be including them in as many of  the fundraising and work phases as possible.  Since we’re growing the family of faith, it should be a family effort!  This includes messages, interviews and testimonies from September 2011 up until December 2011, when we will have a great ingathering, and decide on how much of a loan, if any, is needed. No bank is involved- our funding comes from our denomination, the Evangelical Free Church of America.  They are carefully helping us to calculate how much of a load our budget can bear.  These godly people are tremendous at their work- they haven’t lost one church to debt in over 40 years of helping E V Free churches expand!
