Couldn’t resist

December 22, 2008 at 11:17 am (Ben's Musings)

So, I know we’re on a blogging break, but after yesterday’s Christmas program I couldn’t help but share some of it with you.

What an amazing team and what a powerful way to share such an incredible story!

Thanks to Julie, LaRae, Paula… all of our AlleyKids teachers, parents and Dave (our teenage master of all things video).

Before and After

December 15, 2008 at 10:36 am (church business) (, )

I promised our team that we would invest heavy in the space for two weeks and then get back to the real business of our mission.  I’m more than pleased to say that we reached our goal!

After more than a few late nights and early mornings for an incredible team we have finished the building transformation.  

Here are some before, after and during pics!

Moving

The end of one era… and the beginning of another!  

Thanks to Bruce, Cedric and the Junior High for being such great hosts.  

Praise God for our new home at the corner of 80th and Jamaica in Cottage Grove.

We’ve been heavy at work painting and more.  Check out the pics and thanks everyone!  A special thanks to Jon, Troy, Nathan and Matt for staying till past midnight to get everything cleaned up!

New Space for theAlley

December 3, 2008 at 8:22 am (church business) (, )

As of 8:00 last night we are officially in a space.  7995 Ivystone in Cottage Grove… 80th and Jamaica (the old Crossroads building).  

For the next week and a half we will be knee deep in paint, staples, carpet and an assortment of other fun stuff.  Feel free to slide in and help.  Especially Saturday, Painting Day!  

I expect posts here will be spotty, but we’ll try and get some before and after shots up for you all.
