Directory binders ordered!!!
Cindy Klatt, three elders, and I met recently with representatives of Maverick
Engineering, the firm preparing a parking plan for west side and east side parking.
As soon as a satisfactory plan is prepared it will be presented for approval from the
City of Midland. Once approved, we can begin work on this aspect of renovations.
Recently Jeff Smith and I did a walk-through inventory of the Main
Street building with a view toward determining what things there
might be used at by the Downtown congregation. We went ahead
and brought two chairs that are now in our foyer and a table now
beside the double doors at the front of the auditorium. These chairs
go very nicely with the couch donated a few months ago by the
Bartletts.
Playground equipment and fencing is arriving!. This means that we
can begin to move forward with plans to install the new play area for
children that will be located on the east side of the building between
the entrance to the foyer and the porch entry to the front of the
auditorium. Funding for this project is mostly coming from the Main
Street building fund along with a memorial donation honoring Jean
Akins.
Terry and Barbara Boswell, who have planted a congregation of the Church of
Christ in Chapala, Jalisco, Mexico, report that they have had fifteen baptisms
this year, which has doubled the size of this young congregation. Our brethren
at the Cherry Lane congregation have assisted this congregation in Mexico by
sending them Bibles and hymnals. The Boswells were recently visiting Midland,
and contacted me to see if we possibly had surplus communion trays that we
sell to them. Our elders agreed to donate to these brethren whatever they need
from the communion trays that had been used by the Main Street congregation.
The following is an expression of thanks:
Dear Downtown Family,
This is just to say how very grateful we are that you have shared with us the communion supplies.
We are a growing, excited church in Chapala, Mexico. We invite all to come and visit us! Thanks
you very much again for your generosity. We love you, the Chapala Church of Christ.
Please collect Box Tops and give to Marcia
Neimeyer, to benefit Midland Christian School.
