Restoration - After Four Weeks
Lots of work has taken place outside of the church building in week four. The front wall with it's gates have been removed. This is going to make room for cars to be able to be parked 'nose' first towards the building.
The team also did a lot towards leveling the ground around the building, so that the heap of small stones, off loaded in front of the building, can be spread all round.
The front door of the church has been replaced ...
The allay down the left side of the church has a new gate ...
The drive way down the right side of the church has a new sliding gate installed ...
The old bathroom being divided into a 'Ladies' and 'Gents' toilets has progressed nicely ...
The study also made good progress this last week ...
The new window and new wall have advanced ...
Work has also been done on the study door ....
The best news for the week has been left for last! The Lord provided 100 plastic chairs in the most unexpected way.
Clay explains ...
While driving through Zeerust I saw a truck transporting the same type of chairs that we had got prices on for the church, we wanted 100 chairs but decided to start off with 50 chairs that would have cost R 60-00 per chair. I stopped the driver and asked if he worked for the company that made the chairs to which he replied yes and gave me company contacts, AFRI CHAIRS, there were three names on the document and I asked the Lord which one to call, the middle one was the choice a man named Johan.
I told him I was from the church and that we were starting a new work and asked if he sold to the public, he asked what colour chair we wanted to which I replied the cheapest. He wanted to know how many so in fear that he would be put off by only 50 chairs I told him the full amount in hope we would get it for a good price, the price turned out to be a blessing, he said he had a good deal for me, come and load them and they are yours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You may be saying PRAISE THE LORD now, so am I, however at that point I could not get a word out, the Lord yanked my chain and the tears flowed and I found myself speechless, after a while I told him I did not know what to say to which he replied “thank you” I said “may the Lord bless you for this” to which he replied “He already does”
I know many have had their doubts if thing is of the Lord, all I can say is that if you still doubt best you put it into the bottom of the sea with all your other sins!!!
THERE IS A GOD!
