Please pray for this church building. Metal doubled in price since we got a quote last year, the parking lot has to be done in a ridiculous way because of the city, so the price tripled, and the city is making us do fireproof interior doors, which are way more expensive than regular ones.

At this point, we think with the CELF loan we can make it work, but we will have to delay the remodel of the back building, so we will not be able to use that space. Nothing else can go wrong with the budget and we just got started.

We are still bursting at the seams at the current building. Encouraging things are happening at Authentic Church. Two kids in the youth group who have no Christian influence at home recently gave their lives to Christ. We have about 20 kids coming to Christmas play practice each week. God has always been so good to provide more than we could imagine and we know He will continue to provide.
