Fairlawn Community Center Building

Galatians 6:9 reminds us “So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.”

Ever feel like giving up on something? I know I can relate to that and I’m sure we all can. Our building project has certainly had its ups and downs. There have been times of great praise and times of setbacks. But we haven’t given up….we’re moving ahead because we know a great harvest is soon to come!

This month it’s all about the praise! We met this week with T. Ross Construction Company and did some tweaking to the initial drawings. I expect to have those finalized and available to you within a week or so. We have downsized and scaled back the building to fit our budget, as we shared with you earlier. It will be a single story block building, 60x130x20. It will give us the basics of what we need, and along with some modifications to the existing downstairs, will give us some breathing room for children’s ministries, youth ministry, and social events.

To complete the project, we estimate that we need 1.6 million dollars plus an additional 400k to do things that are not included in the building price. Based on what we have in cash, money to be borrowed, and monthly monies coming in from our Faith Gifts & Promises, I believe we are right on track. So….every dollar we raise and give over the next months will lower the eventual amount we have to borrow to complete the Community Center.

Thank you for your generosity! We will reap the blessing if we don’t give up….if you’re new to Fairlawn let me encourage you to consider giving a one time or monthly gift to the project. Just mark your envelope or online donation for the Building Fund….and thank you! Let’s get this done!

Let’s all work together for the glory of God! Pastor Steve
