Community Gift Day - UPDATE
October 13, 2011
We had an amazing day on Sunday thanks to the whole of the TWCF church community's generous and sacrificial giving and to our amazing God who orchestrated things in such a way that we received exactly the amount we estimated we needed for the whole project (including the gift aid reclaimed).
This is an amazing outcome, and encourages us in so many different ways:
- God knows EXACTLY what we need before we ask (Matt 6:8)
- God prompted each of us to give just the right amount (and we listened!)
- God provides to us so that we can be generous givers.
- Every gift was vital and meant that together we got to the total we estimated we needed for the building works.
- God provides at the right time and in the right way.
- We are part of an amazing community of people who want to see God's kingdom come.
- Together we can accomplish much - We Are Church!
I'm sure you'll be delighted to know that we've since received verbal confirmation that our second planning application (for banners on the front of the church) has also been accepted, we've also received written confirmation of the acceptance for the main application, and as write this, our builders are on site and work has started already!
God is so good!
