Did you know that the administration building had many of its windows replaced? Did you know that in our gym building there will soon be a new floor with fresh painted basketball lines and capability for volleyball? Soon we will have an open house for you to celebrate the work being done on our facility.
Did you know that the church voted to take out a loan in order to replace an aging heating system with HVAC? Not only will we enjoy monthly savings on our heating bill and have a heating system in place that is new and efficient, but we will appreciate that air conditioning in the worship center this summer.
Those are only a few of the projects that need to be addressed as we embark on this “What’s Next Campaign.” As I shared in the “What’s Next News” volume 3 (available this Sunday) we are to care for this space that God has given to us. Giving to the upgrade of our buildings and campus is to enable us to better facilitate ministry. Be sure to read the next newsletter to stay informed. Also, several teams will be doing home visits this coming month, so if you would like to receive a personal visit, then contact Bill Miller or the church office.
Sign up for the “What’s Next Banquet” will begin this Sunday. There will be a table in the back of the sanctuary for you to reserve your spot at the banquet or you can register online at our EBC web page. We are anticipating an excellent turnout to this banquet on April 5, so don’t delay in signing up.
The “30 day prayer challenge” begins on March 5. Turn in your commitment to pray cards by this Sunday to receive daily prayer guide or weekly printout of the guide. The success of this campaign depends on the prayer of God’s people!
Speaking of prayer, the prayer builders will meet this coming Sunday between services (10:20-10:40) in the room behind the stage. Portraits of Jesus Bible Study is at 9:00 and meets downstairs in the fellowship hall. This week’s topic is on Jesus the bread of life.
Have you been feasting on Jesus? Have you planned a time of fasting between now and Resurrection Sunday (4/21)? How will you use breaking from physical food to pray and meditate on the Word of God? I have set a date on my personal calendar to break away from my normal routine of work for prayer, reflection, meditation, and care of my own soul.
God is building something here at EBC! The attendance this past Sunday on a snowy day blew me away! You want to be with God’s people! You long for corporate worship! You desire to know Him better. May that spill out of your life this week until we meet again this Sunday!
Keep hearing the song of the redeemed,
Pastor Brian
