Groundbreaking - April 26th

We have broken ground and we are ready to move forward with the site preparation and construction. Together with building construction, you will see some things happening with the new sign on 747 and lighting along the entrance/exit. Please cover in prayer a West Chester zoning meeting on May 13th, during which we will be asking for a variance due to the size of the sign. West Chester has severe restrictions on sizes and we know we need a permanent sign that is bigger than 3' x 5'!

Thank you for you support in both prayer and financial giving that make this project possible.
