Doral Middle School Beautification Project

Saturday, July 25, 2009

This week was an incredibly busy week for me. 180 Church hosted the First Baptist Church of San Antonio Chapel Singers here in Doral. They came to help two church planters in the area. 180 Church was selected as the benefactors of this great group of young men and women under the leadership of their Music Pastor Steve Carrol.


Steve led this group in working at our new site at Doral Middle with a landscape beautification project. They invested over $2,000 on the project as well as working 4 days under this hot S. Florida weather. Additionally, they did more than plant trees, they were extremely sensitive to the church administration as they serve. As a result, they made a huge impact for Christ in each and everyone they came in contact with. We will reap these benefits of their labor for years to come.

In addition, The City of Doral, with the help from Councilman Robert Van Name and Eric Carpenter agreed to use One of their Subcontractors to make all 22 holes to plant the Fox Tail Palm Trees. Without the assistance of Villa and Sons it would have been impossible to complete this project. Thank you all for your participation.


I will post the final pictures for all to see in my next post.

I hope you can attend our first service here at out new home.

180 Church New Location

Saturday, July 18, 2009

Grecy and I are so excited for our new 180 Church home at Doral Middle School. Yes, we will be there starting on:

Sunday, August 2, 2009
service times are: 10:00 AM (English), and 11:30 AM (Spanish).

Doral Middle School is located at
5000 NW 112th Ave. in Doral.

One of things I have found out through this journey of starting 180 Church is that God's way are always perfect. While some of us (me), may take a longer road to get there, eventually we get there... one way or another.

Just a week ago the principal at the school allowed me to post these signs. I'm grateful to God for His provision and the opportunity to begin this new ministry here in Doral. I went by the school yesterday and noticed all the work they are doing to make the place look nice. The Stage looks great and so does all the floors. In addition, we are doing a landscape beautification project this week to spice up the entry. The church purchased 30 Foxtail palm trees, shrubs, sod, and mulch for this effort. The City of Doral has agreed to help with making the holes on the property. A group of students from First Baptist Church of San Antonio will be here working all week in this project. First Baptist San Antonio has been gracious enough to fund this entire project.

It reminds me of this great verse:

Matthew 6:33But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.


If you like to come by and check it out, it will be an honor to have you visit with us. If you are already plugged in at your church, that's where you need to be.

Looking forward to what lies ahead,

Igor
