Building update...

Good afternoon,

Things move fast in church planting and yesterday was a big day. I met with a commercial property owner and realtor in White House for the possibility of leasing his facility for our church plant. It was very exciting and I was up half the night imagining possibilities for remodeling the inside to make it our home.

The building is 6,000 square feet and includes four rooms which could easily be converted to children's facilities. It has a great entry point which would be ideal for checking in children and entering the warehouse, which will become our primary auditorium. The space is large enough both to seat what we need initially and also construct a welcome area at the back of the meeting room.

The open warehouse floor has a 22-foot high ceiling. The front of the building is brick faced and nicely done, the back is a metal warehouse and in good exterior shape. The inside would need a lot of drapery and covering to give us the ideal look we desire, but after watching the set up of some successful church plants, we can make this work easy.

The warehouse does have an interior office in the middle of the floor, but we're going to go Extreme Home Makeover and just tear the thing down. Demolition is fun! This will open the warehouse floor symmetrically.

Finally, the building has 22 parking spaces in front and the side, but contains a fenced one-acre lot in the back which we have permission to gravel and turn into a large lot. The exterior sign of the building is brick columns with a wooden insert, so we can make our own 6 x 4 sign and drop it in.

Prime location on the north side of town on Highway 31-W puts us in a great marketing and advertising position. We have budgeted for facilities and this is within our budget. We are very excited and though the agreement is tentative it appears we have a working arrangement well on its way. Don't stop praying!

I am speaking soon at local churches in Adairville, KY and Portland, TN. I would love to come to your church and share about the vision and mission for Revolution Church.

Thanks for checking out our update. Be Jesus to someone today and live blessed!

Live, love, serve in the name of Jesus!

Pastor K
