Reflections On Our First Sunday In The New Building

Wow.

Does anyone share that sentiment?

Sharing our first service together in our new building was definitely a morning to remember. We shared in some wonderful music and singing together, Pastor Todd reminded us of the steadfast love and faithfulness of God, and we prayed that God would glorify his name in whatever takes place in our new home.

We had a ton of visitors who came to show their support, and celebrate with us, which was tremendous; thanks to those who visited!

I just want to echo Todd's thanks to John (our contractor), Keith (basically put in ALL things media; a humongous job!), and Ken (pretty much EVERYTHING ELSE). These guys sacrificed a LOT of hours to help us get in by our go date. Praise the Lord for their gifts and their servants' hearts!!!

I want us also to remember that without each and every one of us who comes into that building on a Sunday morning, the building would remain just that: a building. It's the gathering of we who profess Christ as Lord, to the glory of God the Father, that makes it a church. So thank you, all of you for helping to turn that little building on Avenue Stanford into the body of Christ; into Crossroads Community Church.
