Tenacity Pays Off!

About a month and a half ago, I went to check out Aldergrove Kinsmen Community Center, to see if it would work as a place to hold Access Church meetings. After seeing it, praying and processing, I decided it was the 'perfect' place, so a week or so later I went to book it. Too bad, I was told - the fencing club has it booked on Sundays. As I am convinced we should hold services on Sunday mornings, that was obviously problematic. Ah well, I figured, God has another plan for us. After leaving, however, I kicked myself for not asking if/when their reservation runs out, and whether I could have a contact name to talk with about switching days.
Over the past few weeks I've looked at other places that we could potentially rent, but I've kept the vision of meeting at AKC in my mind. Well, yesterday I decided to revisit the issue. I drove to Aldergrove, praying for some change. When I got there I spoke with a staff member who told me that the fencing club meets Sunday afternoons, and the mornings are free! So I asked to book them right away for the dates we need it, thanking God for once again going ahead of us and clearing the way!
Darren at LEFC helped me to learn the importance of tenacity, and had it not been for that lesson, I probably would have resigned to the fact that the facility was booked, rather than pursue it further. I find that i'm learning so much more than ever before in church planting. This is an exciting adventure!
