Finally we were able to have our first services at
the new location!
It wasn't completely finished...there were things left unpainted,
base boards that hadn't gotten put up and little odd and end
things that would have been nice to have done... ;o)
but despite that...it was still beautiful.
Don't you just love the chairs ;o) The ones we ordered in
JANUARY weren't ready yet--??--so, the company sent us
loaner chairs...as you can see in the picture...
they didn't all match. ;o(

But they weren't squeaky~and didn't hurt my back~
and there wasn't any gum under them to get stuck to
my skirt!------well, before church there wasn't. ;o)

as people were coming in. They counted 310...but
I think they missed a few. I noticed there were some
kiddos sitting in the same chair all over the building.
Hubby led the singing...the wood on the stage came
from the sanctuary floor of the old church building..
it's really pretty!
Kailey, Elijah, Kayla & Landon...Kayla loves to
babysit ;o) Bro. Jerry says she's in training to be the
head of the nursery.
Look at those smiles!
We had a lot of kids on the bus...they love
when it's time for the little missionary offereing.
Hubby's dad~Leonard Ballinger~preached a good Father's
Day message...this is a terrible picture...but someone
with little fingers changed my camera setting ;o)
I want to say a great big
THANK YOU
to everyone who helped work on the church building...
I know there were some that wanted too and couldn't and
some just didn't have the time---but there's still a few more
phases left and plenty to be done for you to get in on the fun! ;o)
...but just between us...
I hope it's a few weeks before we start ;o)
I'm exhausted!
