Dec. 2005 – GHOJ Benevolence Gifts Awarded
The tentative groundbreaking date of Dec. 4th has been postponed due to some inevitable obstacles, namely Excel Energy and upgrading the church power supply to 3-phase and the rising costs of building materials as a result of the catastrophic event along the Gulf Coast and Hurricane Katrina. Just as any obstacle, it does slow things up but can be overcome. The building Ministry Team and the Architects are busy to overcome this latest set of drama.
On the bright side…The Harvest of Hope Festival was held Nov. 5th. There was great food and fun had by all. In addition, we were host to an outreach fair. Our special guests were representatives from local ministries that the Benevolence Gifts task force recommended as potential recipients of this year’s benevolence gifts.
