Its Proper Condition

So those who were engaged in the work labored, and the repairing went forward in their hands, and they restored the house of God to its proper condition and strengthened it. (2 Chronicles 24:13)

We know from our study of Scripture that the church is not a building. It is an assembly of Christians. It is people. However, the church needs a place to gather together! And so we have church buildings - structures built for the glory of God as the church meets and serves Him from these buildings.

What does the world think of our church when it looks at our building? If they see something in disrepair, what message does that send? We are blessed by God with a beautiful antique building. People are impressed when they hear how old it is and how well kept it is. But we must not slack in working to keep it that way!

This Saturday (tomorrow), at 10:00 we are having a work day. Coffee, juice and donuts will be provided for all who show up. We will be prepping the platform for the Malone College Chancel Players who will perform on Sunday at 10:30. We will be prepping our Sunday School area for the start of classes on September 16th. There is much work to do. Will you join us?
