MORE EXCEEDING ABUNDANTLY BEYOND

The improvements to our church building arising out of the December 2007 storm are still ongoing. I never thought I'd see the day when our parking lots would be paved, but the pavers just finished with the East parking lot yesterday. I never thought I'd see the day when we had anything better than metal folding chairs in the Fellowship Hall, but we picked up some used ones from the Seaside Convention Center last week. I never thought I'd see the day when the front landscaping would be anything more than a big yard and a little sidewalk entrance to the church. But it has been redone and is very nice and makes the front entrance much more accessible. Harvey Packard just finished with a major remodel of the library--it looks great. For the first time since the building was built in the 70s we can almost say that it is finished.

Praise God! This has all been exceeding abundantly beyond anything that anyone would have thought. Its safe to say that the December 2007 storm was the best thing that ever happened to our church building. Church Mutual was great in caring for us. Helligso Construction did a great job on the remodel. The people of the church have worked really hard on these recent yard projects. Numerous workers have put in countless hours for which we are most thankful. But, above all else, thank you Lord Jesus for your provision!

God really does work in ways that amaze and suprise us! Who would have ever thought that this disaster would turn into a blessing of such magnitude! I praise God with you for all He's done for Lewis and Clark......may He continue to bless you.
