Our CHURCH is Moving!

Dear Friends,

I have some really important news for you, so please read this entire blog!

WE'RE MOVING, WE'RE MOVING, WE'RE MOVING!

As many of you know we started The Roots Community Church in our home last Easter 09'. Since then we have moved to the KOA Kampground Rec Center and it has proven to be a wonderful starter home for our small church. There has been many occasions where each seat was taken and we were out of space to accommodate new people.

This began a quest for us to find a larger home that would accommodate for more families from our community. But, locations for churches to meet in Davenport are not in abundance as the infrastructure for this community has not caught up yet with the number of people that live here.

In December I was put in touch with Steve and Bill Leary through Duke Real Estate about a Shopping Center they own that has a 4,400 Sq. Foot store front church on US 192 about 2 mile east of US 27 in The Shoppes of Vista Del Lago. When I heard about this opportunity I went over to meet with them and take a look. I was informed about the financial responsibility of this kind of a lease and knew right away that if this was going to work it would have to be a "God" thing.

So here is what God has done so far:

1. The landlords have agreed to take more than 1/2 off of the original lease price.

2. Carrie Milstead (Roots family member) will be opening a DayCare in the new facility.

3. Funds for the initial move and expenses were raised in one month's time.

4. The location of the building is in the center of our target outreach zone.

5. The former church has donated over $15,000 in equipment for us to get started.
(ex: Chairs, Video Projectors, Lighting, Curtains, Office Equipment, etc...)

I wish I had time to tell you all the little things that have been going on behind the scenes that have proved to me over and over again that God is in this. It has been truly amazing to see Him move in the midst of us. We are so blessed.

So, this Sunday...January 31...will be our last Sunday at the KOA.

Beginning on Sunday, February 7th at 10AM (same time as before) we will hold our worship gatherings at the New Facility:

8681 W Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy Kissimmee, FL
The Shoppes of Vista Del Lago.


So, now that you know that we are moving...what do we need you to do?

HOW YOU CAN MAKE THE TRANSITION SMOOTH:

1. Make sure you come to the first service in the new building on February 7th at 10AM!!!

2. Bring some friends and family members. (Our new children's area is going to rock!)

3. Pray about how you might start or increase your financial commitment to The Roots because this new building is a step of faith.

4. Pray for you friends who are far away from God...consider how this new space
might be the perfect place to invite them, so that they can hear about God's love.

5. Consider how you might get more involved in The Roots by serving on Sunday mornings as a Greeter, Usher, Media Arts, or Children's Ministry Volunteer.

I would love to hear from you in the next couple of weeks. If you have any questions or concerns please email me at jessecarbo@gmail.com

WE WILL SEE YOU THIS SUNDAY @ THE KOA FOR OUR LAST WORSHIP CELEBRATION IN THAT LOCATION AND NEXT SUNDAY, FEB. 7 @ OUR NEW LOCATION.
