A Moving Experience!
September 21, 2007First, why a blog? Just another venue by which contact and connection can be made — it’s the mission of Communion… Hmmm, maybe a new slogan in there somewhere…
Tonight, our church body assisted with a move to a brand new location. We have been an “official mission” of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church since April of 2006, meeting in Irvine, Ca. We began our Sunday Services in a former elementary school known as “the former Alderwood Basic +.” The campus is in the community of Woodbridge and located on the Yale Loop. The Irvine Unified School District had intended on selling the property — but boy, what happened to the market? So they decided to upgrade the campus and make it a “high tech” training center (too sensitive to share with renters). So in a magnanimous move, the IUSD decided to offer us another campus of theirs: the former Creekside Continuation High School (still located in Woodbridge, still off the Yale Loop). The IUSD was kind to us. They even sent a flatbed truck out with a few staff members to help us move all our equipment, our decorations, and all our supplies to the new campus (Remember the last time your heart just got happy from a gesture of thoughtfulness?) Thank you IUSD! And THANKS to our own faithful crew who worked well into the night to arrange our new facility (ya’ll gotta come see it!)
From this…
To this… 
So now the blogging starts! It sort of feels like a new “launch” of the ministry and we trust that our new location will bring more folks to share in our communion. The “second quarter” is about to start and we’re in good field position.
Here is where we’ll share some of the views from the sidelines.
Time to march toward the goal.
Peace,
RevK
