Building Bridges

A wee bit of an update from the last week on our efforts here in the Lehigh Valley of Pennsylvania:

-  Mike our creative arts guy with a lil help from his friends did an awesome job in putting together our website.  

Check it out:  www.lvlegacy.org

- Most of our efforts in the last week have been centered on building bridges to the community.  We have started our process of interviewing community leaders, non-profit organizations, and anyone who will sit with us to talk.  These interviews are geared around two things:  #1 - What are the crisis needs of the community, and #2 - To let them know that Legacy and our team care about the community and want to be involved.  Pray for the team as they go out the next few weeks to build these bridges to the community!

- Two posts ago, we listed our upcoming events.  The team is gearing up for those by working on flyers; we purchased a bounce house and a popcorn machine; reserved the park for the events on the 7th and 28th at Upper Macungie Park; and more stuff on the way.  We want to make these events both fun and memorable for those that show up!

- The key to those events will be the selling of the Vision to the people that show up.  So., pray that they will be receptive!

- We have a meeting with an engineer from CDF (Church Development Fund) on Monday the 11th at a facility we are considering.  He will give us a general idea on whether on not the costs will be something we can handle or not.  Please pray for that.  If we decide to move forward with that facility, it may require us to raise some additional support for the buildout of the facility.  Maybe you could start praying about that too; and if God lays it on your heart to help us with that we would so appreciate that!

Things are starting to rock-n-roll and it is an exciting and nerve-wracking time too.  Please continue to pray for the team and our cohesiveness and focus, but more importantly for our spouses and family.

Thanks for following along!  Much appreciated!
