Big Roll of Red Tape

Some day the vacant lot across from the mission won't be vacant. Rock Island OKC will be open.



God's timing.

And the city's too, apparently.

Rock Island has been bumped for another week from its appearance with the Board of Adjustment for a zoning change. They were suppose to appear Thursday, Jan. 13, but now the date is Jan. 20.

The zoning change is needed to get the building permit and the building permit is needed to start building.

God's timing. Ron Crawford prays that timing will allow Rock Island to be open by this summer.

Ron and Susan's dream for Rock Island is for it to be a place for youth in the neighborhood to come and hang out. There will be food, movies, video games, homework help, friends, mentors, and prayer - a safe haven to help these kids know God loves them and wants them to succeed.

Thanks to many volunteers who share this vision. There's Larry Schwab and Ron White who drew up the plans. John Davidson who is ready to serve as the contractor. And those who've donated supplies - roofing, concrete, materials (everything but the lumber!)

Please pray for this process and for God's timing to be revealed!
