April update on Project 3133
Hello saints, I wanted to publish a progress report on the state of our building project.
We are on the slow and steady plan as we wait for the HVAC and ducting work to be completed. But we got a lot done in the last month. The floors are finally cleared after we battled the ancient carpet glue demons that were in there. The new lights and electrical work are mostly finished. Still on the list are: new ceiling tiles, new bathrooms, new carpet, improved drywall, painting, and a new stage!
Our Current Funding Status
Let’s just say, we are believing God to pour out resources so that we can finish this project. WE are currently behind in our fundraising as outlined in the chart below. We want to encourage your faithful generosity in this season as we are striving to not fall behind in our budget. THANK YOU for all your prayers and giving to make this project happen!
What it Shows
There is only one unpaid bill on this chart for our electrical contractor. We currently owe them close to $6000. When we have the funds, we will write that check. As you can see, we’ve had to pull funds from the normal funds to make this project go forward. There is a $6500 disparity between the funds raised and the funds spent. This is making us fall behind, and we could use some “beyond their ability” giving at this time to get caught up.
“Moreover, brethren, we make known to you the grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia: 2 that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded in the riches of their liberality. 3 For I bear witness that according to [their] ability, yes, and beyond [their] ability, [they were] freely willing,”
