We’re getting to the fun part! Infrastructure like the fire suppression system may be necessary, but seeing the framing of The Gathering Place start to go up is fun. Extensive planning and preparations, disrupted by a pandemic, make it all the more satisfying to see the recent progress on the building. Our patience is paying off.

The hard work, commitment, and support of so many church and community members is heartening. The Gathering Place building project is akin to a current day “barn raising.” We may not all be out there measuring and hammering, but many are involved in the work. Too many to name individually in fact. So to those of you actively working on the project, and those who are supporting through donations and general encouragement – THANK YOU. Let’s have some fun together.
