Easter Evening we had our services out at the new property. It was a gorgeous evening! Everyone brought their chairs and sweet tea. It was such a sweet time!
Brother Arlo Elam, a man that has been such an encouragement to my Patrick, preached the message for us. What a wonderful sermon as he challenged us to work together and be involved in building this building for the Lord! We're excited about what God is going to do!
For several weeks Patrick had been encouraging our people to ask God what they can give for a special offering we would take at the end of the service. Some people sold things so that they could give. Some people brought things of value to be sold. Some gave their income tax returns. Our people gave!
Our people gave over $10,000 that night for the building/property fund! It's so exciting to serve the Lord together and give together. God is doing some amazing things at VSIBC!
Praise the Lord!!

Praising God for the givers. May they be blessed and may you continue to accumulate the funds you need for the new building.
