1. Our church will be relocating later this year. This is a tremendous answer to prayer and the culmination of years of effort. We are purchasing an existing church building that is currently owned by East Lansing Public Schools. The building is a mile up the road. The MSU Community School of Music, which currently leases more than half the space in the facility we are purchasing, will be moving into our building. The school district will find a place to relocate by next summer. It has been good to work with East Lansing and MSU on this move. The outcome should be good for all three of us. And we’ll be able to double our facilities and triple our parking without going into debt. God is good.
