We've Been Approved!!

Great News!! Our building project was granted the approval by the town of Halfmoon planning board last night. This was an important step in order to proceed with our vision. In fact, without their approval we were dead in the water. The town meeting was very positive. The board voted unanimously for our project and seemed excited that we are building in their town.

Now we are submitting a request to DEC for a permit that allows us to tunnel under a creek to connect to the county's sewer system. Please pray that the process would not be held up. We also have to apply for a permit to clear the property and apply for a building permit. I am sure there are other permits that we have to apply for that I don't know about yet.

We are obviously excited about this vision God has granted to us. Please don't hesitate to call me if you would like more information about our YFC Recreation Center.

Building Update

Next Monday, June 14th, we will be presenting our YFC recreation building at a public meeting for the town of Half Moon. Please pray that we receive a favorable response and are granted the town planning board's approval.

Hopefully, the next day we will start clearing and grading the property, order the building and continue to raise funds. I'm not sure how the Lord will do this, but we will try to follow Him. If anyone has any questions regarding the building, please don't hesitate to call me.

Also, our giving the past two months has decreased considerably compared to last year. We continue to remain faithful to what God has called us to do... share the life changing hope that only comes from knowing Jesus Christ!

Thank you for your faithfulness to reach young people.
