Message from Rob Stanley, pastor of The Village Community Church, a new Grace Brethren church plant in Milton, Ontario, Canada:
We’re coming up to the first anniversary of the launch of The Village Community Church here in Milton, and year one has been awesome. We’ve added dozens of new members, seen lots of people come to faith, and we’ve become the groundbreaking presence in our community which we’d envisioned for years.
As we align ourselves for the fall though, we’re facing a bit of a crisis, as we are losing a great deal of the our on-site storage at the movie theatre which we meet at. As a team, we’re willing to roll with the punches and adapt accordingly, but the issue now is that we need someplace essentially to put our collapsible stage and all of our sound equipment.
The best solution as we can see it is a trailer/cube van which could house the materials and then be transported to the theatre on Sunday, but of course, these things don’t grow on trees. So, we thought we’d make a wide appeal to any and all churches in our Fellowship to see if there were any cube vans or other alternatives available to us at minimal cost.
Right now, we are a self-supporting group, so money is at a premium, but we’re committed to our dream and to our location and we feel like somehow acquiring a reliable transportation method is where we should be aiming right now.
If you know of a possible solution, or feel like you and your church could help out in some way, then please feel free to contact me at rob@villagechurch.ca or phone me directly at 905-876-4762.
