Living water in the desert

For the past 22 years, I have had the privilege of pastoring the church family at Calvary Chapel of Holbrook. In that time, I have seen God faithfully provide for our regular needs and above. Over the past 13 years or so, we have been able to remodel our sanctuary, remodel our bathrooms, reconfigure our 2 Sunday school rooms, and fix up an older building behind our main building. On top of that, we are debt-free.

At the end of May, we were able to purchase a vacant lot next to our current facility. It is our hope to be able to add some additional buildings on that lot as well as parking. The site plan you see is a rough idea of what we would like to do as funds permit. This would be done in phases. We would most likely begin with a 40ft x 30ft (2 rooms and a bathroom) Sunday School building and go from there.

What I am asking for is that you would join us in prayer. What we envision is 2 (40ft x 30ft) Sunday School buildings and another building to be used as a sanctuary (60ft x 50ft), which would allow us to use our current building as a fellowship hall/multipurpose building. The sanctuary and the Sunday school buildings would be connected by a courtyard.

Here is the thing, we are a small church in a small community. What we would like to do is impossible for us to do on our own. But we serve a God who can do much more than we could ever imagine. We are asking that, if it is His will, He would open the floodgates and bless us with what is needed to accomplish this project. My prayer is that through this, it would serve as an encouragement to other pastors in small towns all over and to individuals of what our God can do when we ask and pray.
