Several of us took the day on Wednesday to travel over to Greenville, SC to meet with our architects! It wasn’t our first meeting with them, but it was our first chance to see their offices first-hand, and to start narrowing in on conceptual ideas for our new building.
These guys had come to meet with us at The Orchard a month or so ago, just to ask a bunch of questions and to listen to us. I am so thrilled that these guys love Jesus. We have been able to hear their testimonies, and to pray with them. It is SUCH a comfort to know that they are about the KINGDOM, not just about designing buildings and getting paid.
Our group consisted of elders John Crawford and Steve Marks. Dianne Fowler, Suzie Fleming, and Jon Breshears also went along to speak for their respective ministries.
So, the whole trip went well, and we are beginning to get some great ideas of exactly what type of building we are aiming for. We still have a long way to go before we have any designs to show off, but I am really happy with the direction we are heading.
