During the cleanup of the ceiling in the basement, Bro. Bill found these two nails, which were lying unused on a cross brace. They evoke so many thoughts, don't they? Who put them there? How long have they lain there, unused, in God's house?
Two nails, faithfully staying right where they were put, year after year after year. What a picture of our little church in Randolph! There is so much history in the old building where the Friendship Bible Church gathers. These two nails are a graphic reminder of that history. But there is also a vibrant future. In close proximity to the very spot these two nails lay for probably 150 years, new walls have risen, and new facilities are under construction. God's work in Randolph may have been going on for a century and a half in that old building, but if He wills, it is still going on, and will until Jesus comes!
Some updates:
The foundation has passed inspection, and the basement walls have been back filled. The concrete work on the front steps is imminent, and then the walls of the addition will start going up. Continue to pray, and provide, as God leads you.
This Lord's Day we will once again meet in the Randolph Town Hall. Be faithful to assembling!
A couple of fun events are taking place this weekend:
Saturday - motorcycle ride to Burton, with lunch along the way. Meet in the church parking lot at 10:00 AM.
Sunday - Pastor's Masters golf at Tannenhauf. Tee times start at 1:30.
