RetroC begins again

We moved into our new church last month.

THE GOOD
I think what's great about it is that it used to be a gym. What we are using as the sanctuary has one full wall covered in mirrors, which can be distracting. All four walls are painted different colors: red, blue yellow, and green. There is a lap pool, great any kind of water ball you can imagine.

The youth now have place where they can have a separate service. In the room are three cable TVs in working condition. Our idea is to have some Playstations and Xboxs hooked up to them soon. We're also got enough room for a pool table, ping-pong table, and whatever else we can think of.

A no-remodeling-needed nursery for kids and infants. With the current influx of children this is probably the biggest God-send we could have hoped.

To help with funds, the church has decided to rent out the adjacent buildings. The faster this thing is paid off, the faster we'll be free to help the communittee more abundantly.

THE BAD
The sanctuary mirrors have got to go. There is a ton of painting and remodeling to do. It may not be cheaper to build from scratch, but moving in does have it's problems. The low ceiling can make the place very cramped if there were a large enough crowd in the sanctuary and sound could be better because there seems to be some electrical interference somewhere.

CONCLUSION
Blessed beyond all we could hope for and achieve on our own. The best thing is that it's not typical. Right when you walk in the doors you can't help but realize that just maybe we are a little closer to living the Apostolic church.
