Today is an exciting day, it is our first meeting (7:00 PM at First Baptist Church of Lake Placid) with those who have stepped up and said they would participate in the project. It is our intent to see what is needed from a standpoint of donations and/or finances to complete the project.
I spoke to Keith Lagrow today and he has agreed to help with the irrigation system if needed.
I also spoke to Joe Lyon (HD Supply, Inc.) and he has agreed to help supply building materials.
The meeting was a HUGE success; we had (18) people show up. All those in attendance were asked to introduce themselves and explain what they could or would be bringing to the project. I was able to share a brief history of how the project got started and how God has led us to this point. It was a sweet time of testimony and interaction between all that attended, and as the meeting progressed, it was felt by all that this ministry-KINGDOM BUILDERS-could become a ministry that would encompass all kinds of needs throughout our community. We all felt like it should be a multi-denominational organization, not limiting ourselves to just building projects. This vision was embraced by all. Who knows where this ministry will go and how big it will become, as long as we are sensitive to GOD’S leading and will.
The vision is to go out into our community, country, other cultures and the world Acts 1: 8 Jesus speaks-"But when the Joly Spirit has come upon you, you will receive power and will tell people about me everywhere-in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." (NLT) serving others (revealing God’s glory) with a mission to spread the gospel message. With a vision somewhat in place, we felt that this ministry definitely needed to become a Non-Profit organization.
