Hard Hat Area

This was a very welcome sight outside my office window today. My friend Susan shot this, and all morning I heard the crank and groan of Big Yellow Machines as they moved dirt and prepared to begin contruction!

After what seems like years (oh, wait, it HAS been years!)things are finally happening for the brick and mortar part of our church. I am excited - and yet somewhat reluctant. Having a building will change us, in ways yet to be determined.

My blogosphere friends who go to church - most of you go to a specific building. Church is a place as well as a community. Soon, we'll have a tangible place, and I just wonder how that will impact our understanding of community...

Beth, I've experienced new churches but the place of worship doesn't change if the people are the same. I guess...
