Exciting Trip

Churches talk a lot about vision and yet frankly so often we do not move into the future we envision. There is often a disconnect between what we envision and what we actually do. it has become clear to me that it is time for us as a church to dream and out of those dreams begin to plan for the future.

Our reality is that we are out of space. We are critically short on classrooms and offices. Our bathrooms are small, cramped and totally inadequate. And all of this has come to a head because we have nowhere for our babies and toddlers. Our nursery is very small and is only for about two babies. Currently we have 6 nursery age children and one more on the way that we know about. They do not fit in the nursery.

It is time for us to find a short term immediate solution and time to start strategizing for a long term solution. For the short term it looks like we are going to split up the toddlers and the infants and move the adult class into a different area. For the long term it looks like we have to build.

I do not know what that will look like ... we have lots of options. It is exciting, it is scary ... and it is everything in between those things as well. There are good things ahead ... we just need to find the path.

This should be an exciting trip ....
