The Lord laid upon our Pastor's heart the need for an outdoor Tabernacle that will serve many uses as we meet to worship Him. From the time we broke ground to the time we finished the concrete was 3 weeks. That's amazing in itself, but something more amazing is the Lord worked. God sent us a man who was out of work at the time. He did most of the work, without charge, and the day we finished the job, he got a call to come back to work. God is good, all the time.
The Tabernacle was finished just in time to hold our third Camp Meeting. What a blessing it was to gather together and worship the Creator in the cool of the outdoors.
Lord willing, we will hold many services in the Tabernacle. Some are already planning for our first wedding. From late Spring to early Fall we plan to hold Gospel sings, probably once a month. I cannot wait till we hold our first Sunday morning service. No doubt we'll have many picnics and "chicken on the ground". A lot of ways to use the Tabernacle cross my mind, but the thing most dear to my heart is when we gather for Camp Meeting, when folks of God come from many corners to worship with us.
