The New Location is Taking Shape

Hello Church Family!
 
Today I want to update you (and hopefully encourage you) with what has been happening on the new church location. I thought it would be helpful to share some of things that have been going on “behind-the-scenes.”
 
First of all, a project like this has many ins-and-outs that go on to bring it to completion – it’s very complicated. For instance, we have an architect who is working on our project, and with him different people who oversee the electrical planning, the plumbing, and the fire system that needs to be installed. Besides, we have someone who’s doing interior designs as well as various ministry leads who contribute to the designs and input for the new building! After all the general plans are completed, it is submitted to the city for approval of our permits (hopefully this week we can submit the plans!). So many are involved in bringing this about – all before we ever start to even build it!
 
Here are two pictures of the imagined entryway and hall. And we will have more updates as they become available. Soon we’ll be doing more and more design work.





 
Your giving and prayers are what fuel this project. So thank you so much! Let me give you a couple of specific prayer requests for the project:

• The permits to pass on the first round
• New people who will be drawn to Jesus and be drawn to Summit Ridge
• Funding needed for this project
• A stirring in our people for prayer and growth in Christ
• Nehemiah 4:6b says that “the people had a mind to work.” May this be true of us!
• Spiritual protection, wisdom and discernment for our leaders

 
Thank you for praying and giving and being a part of Summit Ridge Church. I am eager to see how He will work among us.
 

Held By His Abundant Grace,


Pastor John
