The core building team has finished reading through the book we mentioned a couple weeks ago, "Plan for It" by Tim Cool. It has given us a common understanding and overview of the master plan process before us. We were encouraged by how many points we've already been aware of and working on. One impactful thought from the book was the idea that any facility a church uses is simply a tool for ministry. Our job is to evaluate and propose a facility that can be an effective and efficient tool for who God has made New Hope to be.
As we consider how to prepare for upcoming steps, the core building team has determined that the next sub-committee we would be wise to form is a capital campaign team. This team will be tasked with researching, planning, preparing, and carrying out the fundraising endeavor for the building project. They will work closely with the core building team, elders, and church finance team. While a master plan for the property is yet to come together, there are many initial tasks that a capital campaign team could could begin to mobilize for. We are prayerfully considering who could be a good fit for this team. Do you have a recommendation for us? Do you sense this is a way God is asking you to serve? Please let us know by emailing jwiebers@gmail.com.
Thanks for praying:
- Praise God for a sense of unity among the building team. Pray that we would hear from God and discern together how he is leading.
- For the sale of remaining hotel furniture as well as the North Building.
- That God would guide the formation of the capital campaign team.
- Ask the Lord how He would like to use your strengths, resources, and prayers through this project.
