Grab a brush and let's get the paint on

In an amazing week, the sheet rockers hung the entire worship space in 5 days. Everything has been sheet rocked and will be ready to paint this week. Praise God!

Starting Wed night and culminating on Saturday we will paint. Saturday will be our Big Big day. If you haven't been out yet, now is your chance to help build God's church. We will have brushes and rollers and plenty of other things to do.

Come out and get the paint on!

Echo....Echooo....Echooooooo


The program is about to begin in 2 minutes, we are in Dallas at the premiere conference on reaching people with media with the message of the love of Christ. Donald Miller is one of the keynote speakers and last night we heard Mark Batterson. Good stuff. We have been able to see first hand some amazing ministries and have built relationships with guys with the same heart and are technical genius's! Very cool!

Oh Cool

The heating and air folks were out at the new building today putting in the new heating and air systems.  They were using their cranes to lift the new systems on top of the roof.

Everything seems to be moving at a pretty fast pace now.  I've been talking to our own Shane Williams and David Thacker about drywall finishing and painting.  In the next two weeks the offices and classrooms will be finished.  Sweet!!

Make your Mark Sunday

Things are still rock'n in the new building. The remaining framing and electrical work is being done in the worship space. Finishing work on the drywall had begun in the offices and classrooms and the pier is almost complete. In a couple of weeks we will begin painting, putting up wall designs in the kids classrooms and patching the concrete so we can carpet the worship space. These are things we can all help with. I'll let you know when we can get in and start!

A special thanks goes out to Stu, Lois, Lyle and Gene. These laborers have great hearts and have made a huge impact at our church and for God's Kingdom. When you see them this weekend tell them how much you appreciate their work and be praying for them as they load up and head out. They are leaving this weekend and I want them to leave knowing how much their work has meant to all of us.

Also, Sunday after church and throughout this next week we are signing studs in the new building. Find a stud somewhere in the worship space and write out a prayer or put down a favorite bible verse as a way of asking God's blessing on the work and ministry of LakePointe. This will be our only chance to do this before the drywall goes up around the worship space. Take this opportunity to see what's changed and grab a pen to make your mark!

Joshua 24:15 "....as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."
