November 5, 2009 - Well last week I said I would tell you more about the Petrich Church group and the our new meeting location. It has been the goal for a while to go a bit more public with our meetings, but we have been waiting for the local folk to want that to happen. We have suggested it and ask them to look this month it clicked. We have a great little room (and rest room) that will work for the English Clubs and Bible Study and hopefully a few more events to reach out and serve the community. It is right across the street from the City Soccer Stadium where there is lots of space and room to have activities for youth. (And we have a parking lot we can use too!) Below is a photo of the location and the inside.
We have found 20 chairs that are sturdy and comfortable and have a list of others things we are looking for. We want to get a cabinet for the coffee and tea things as well as some lockable cabinets for things we need to secure.
This week pray for the work here – we are going to start meeting there on November 18, 2009. Until then we are getting it ready. In Early December we want to have an Open House for the community to come and see. I will let you know when that will be.
The Petrich Church Plant is an Extra Mile Project and you can give to it if you want to help us with getting this started – That can be done on line through our web site www.almellinger.com click on the giving link and follow the online instructions or a check can be mail to our mission Board – (email me for the address)
Also, this week pray for the Church Leaders Conference that will be taking place next week in Budapest, Hungary. This is a gathering of all the missionaries and church leaders that our mission organization works with in Europe. Pray for this gathering as plans will be set for the next ten years.
