Community Baptist Groundbreaking
Besides the very first service when CBC opened it's doors, today was the most exciting day for Community Baptist Church. It is hard to believe that a vision that began in the heart of one man, could become the vision and dreams of so many in only 7 years! The day began with a "buzz" in the air. Even the children knew that today would be a special day where they would realize how God used all their pennies, nickl
es and dimes for this great work. After the morning service we all headed to our property where we enjoyed watching people stroll through, claiming this land as "our own". It finally became tangible, touchable and real. Our building team and their wives came forward and were thanked by our Pastor for their time, prayers and hard work in making this day possible. Then Pastor Ludka gave a speech on how it all began and cast the vision of what will come. Mike T
eel gave a prayer of dedication and then the shovels were handed to the Building Team. What a thrill it was to see the dirt moved for the first time from these wonderful men. After that, we enjoyed pictures of each family with the hard hat and shovel. These memories will last a lifetime. So
me of the greatest pictures were from our youth group and children. We know this is the future generation of Community Baptist. Then, we came forward and unveiled the new "Future Home of Community Baptist Church" sign. One of the joyous things of the day was to see Mr. and Mrs. Watrous there, 
viewing the very thing they have yearned for in the last 7 years. Mr. Watrous' dream is "see a church building before I go home to be w
ith the Lord" Well, Mr. Watrous..."it is truly happening!" Thank you Lord for such a wonderful day and giving us so much to be thankful for.

"Is our new church built yet, Mommy?" This is Christian's question everytime we pass the property of CBC's future home. It is so amazing to see the excitement in a child's face when you talk about the new church building. Can you imagine how many friends they have told? And how many will want to come to see what the excitement is all about on opening day? These are such "exciting times"!!!!!
