United

I went out to the property yesterday to pray and saw a new flower box around our sign. I was so happy to see that someone had taken their time and put this great addition on the property. It was at this time I felt "united" to our faith family. I have always felt united but as I have worked on getting this project off the ground only a few people have been with me, praying with me, planning with me, and walking this journey with me. What I realized yesterday was that you, the Clearwater family have been "united" with me the entire time. I guess somewhere in my spirit I realized that truth but I just didn't say it out loud. But now I do. I feel the presence and power of our "united" family pushing towards the goal of planting our "Mission Outpost". I want to thank those of you that saw that a flower bed was needed at the property but more than that I want to thank you that you are "united" with this vision. I thank my God for you all.

Acts 2:44 And all who believed were together and had all things in common.

Getting Ready!

Hello Clearwater Family,

Wanted to give our church family an update on what is going on at the property. We have just finished up our final drawings for the civil or drainage plans for the property. It was a pleasure to work with In-Site engineering and there team on this project. They have given us a plan that enable us to utilize 6 of the 7 acres that we purchased which is great considering that we will have two ponds on the backside or railroad side of the property.

We will have one main entrance on Huntley Parkway and then on the next phase of the project have a right in and right out entrance/exit on Highway 11.

The master planning with Turner Batson is also complete and it was a great pleasure to work with Jamie Collins and Richard Foo on the plans for the land as well as the building. They have worked with In-Site to get our buildings in the best possible places on the land to enable us to be able to use this land effectively.

On the agenda at this time is working with developers and general contractors to get some final numbers for the land development and first phase building. Once we have the numbers together and several bids from companies involved we will approach the banks to acquire the financing necessary to get going.

As you can see we are in full swing of the "Getting Ready" phase of the project.

One question that has been asked a lot is "when we will be moving to the new land?" or "how long will it take to build?"

My answer to both is around 8-10 months depending on the time of year we start as weather will play a part in the process.

I hope this gets you all up to speed and answers some questions that you may have. Please feel free to contact me with any questions that you may have.

To God be the Glory!

Timmy
