Here’s the answer to your prayers—My Church has a home! 

God sent us people. God sent us equipment. But, less than 3 months from our launch date, God had not yet given us a facility. Everywhere we looked, doors were being closed on potential launch locations—movie theaters, universities, schools, warehouses—everyone was telling us no! 

Then we found this incredible option in a brand new strip mall owned by a Christian businessman. Of course, the price was way out of our budget; so, we met with the owner, shared our vision, made a ridiculous lowball offer and guess what? He said “NO!” Our launch team spent the next few weeks fasting and praying. We were seriously considering setting up a tent. Then on October 24, God filled me with unexplainable boldness. I just felt compelled to call the guy and ask again. This time, he said, “YES!!!!” 

You’re looking at a 7,300 square foot miracle. The developer is going to finish the build-out to our specks for free! My church not only has a launch location—we’ve got a starter home, complete with worship center, lobby and kids rooms! How’s that for a financial miracle right in the middle of the worst economic month in 20 years? Praise God!! Come on, say it with me—“Praise God!!” 

God continues to give us favor and put people in our path who need help finding their way back to Him. We cannot wait to see the lives that will be changed in this facility! We are going to need to buy chairs, which is about a $9,000 unexpected expense. If you would like to provide a seat for someone, every $30 you donate will purchase another chair. Our plan is to start with 300 seats and add multiple services as soon as we can! 

Thank you for being a part of our miracle!

We are now accepting tax-deductible donations directly through My Church. Please make your checks payable to My Church and send to us at P.O. Box 8925, Columbus, GA 31907. If you have been giving online or by credit card, we will contact you as soon as we are able to receive online donations through our website at mychurchcolumbus.com. Your November contribution can still be accepted online through Mountain Lake Church.

Big Stuff this weekend

Mountain Lake Church — Jeff on November 13, 2008 at 10:34 pm

I am pumped up about Mountain Lake Church coming to Columbus. I am honored that they believe enough in our church to come here and give us a hand.  One of the coolest things we will do while they are here is throw a huge party for Greystone Falls (our apartment complex). Our intentions are to honor our military men and women who live here and show all the families a great time.

MLC–You guys are awesome!!!
