As I sit here in this beautiful sanctuary where we worship,  I think about the people that came before me. The members that had the vision to come together and build this church and make it a reality. Maybe there are many of you still here today who took part in that vision. If you are – thank you.

We now have that same opportunity to make a difference in the lives of many people that follow us. Ten or twenty years from now, someone will have shared the same joy we feel now and thank all of us for having the vision to move forward.

As we kick off this campaign, we set the stage for this church to come together with our vision, with our mission and with our dreams, all to do the work as disciples of Jesus Christ.
