Our library…in our recent property loss, was displaced because of the broken pipe and subsequent flooding. In the near future, we will restore the room that housed our library. Our library, in its former state was seldom used. Recently, the Library Committee and Staff, on two separate occasions, approached me about distributing the books to “where the people are.” They suggested moving books for youth to the youth wing…moving books for children downstairs to the children’s wing…moving discipleship and teaching materials to the Sunday School Office…moving reference books to the conference room…and moving general reading books to the parlor and atrium. I thought this was a great idea and it would promote the borrowing and reading of our books. So look for books coming to a place near you!
Our history…our history items were also stored within a small closet in the former library. Bro. Roger has offered the History Committee the use of a smaller room in the youth wing for housing our history items.
Our worship…many times we have moved worship items into the former library for weddings, funerals, and special events. Often worship items have been stored in the room long term. I have offered the former library, once it is repaired, to Bro. Mark for permanent worship storage and use.
God is good in providing the space we need for the ministries we have. We are blessed!
Bro. David
