Shovels big & small
Mayor Janet Taylor
The first time our Pastor has been out since mid-OctoberYesterday our church, Salem Alliance, broke ground on a project that has been in the works for decades. The story is too long to detail here, but sufice it to say God's timing is always perfect. He provided land for us to build on that we had been wanting for over 20 years...and at half the price! So along with Salem's Mayor, Janet Taylor, the President of our denomination, 3 past pastors and our very ill Sr Pastor, John Stumbo, we grabed shovels and ceremonially broke ground for a 57,000 sq foot building. The purpose of the building will be to bring church, community and commerce together. The first floor will be retail shops and a free medical clinic. The 2nd & 3rd floors will be for chruch use and community classrooms (ESL, Life Skills, Financial Management, Parenting etc.). The 4th floor will house a seminary and professional offices. It's a huge step of faith for our church so it will be exciting to see how God will provide.
Al last in line next to the mayor in the blue coat
