"We were truly seeking God for wisdom in building a new sanctuary for Him.  We had interviewed architects and architects/builders, but did not have a clear feeling regarding any of them. 

The very day that we were to meet and make a decision as to who we would hire, the Lord put on my desk a mailing from Building God’s Way.  I liked the name, it resonated with my soul, so I slipped the DVD into the player and sat back and listened.  YES!  This was indeed the way God was calling us to build; but I needed to test this out with the Building Committee. 

I took the DVD and material to our meeting and suggested that before we made a decision, we should listen to this tape.  After listening to the tape, it was unanimous that we should not make a decision that night, but invite BGW’s builder, R.S. Mowery, to the next meeting. 

The rest is history for us! After that first visit, many discussions and a trip to Ogden, Utah to see the full complement of supporting ministries to help us in our project, we felt sure that this was the architect/builder God was calling to come along side us to build something great for HIM!

During the process, BGW/R.S. Mowery guided us through every aspect of the building project from visioning and designing our sanctuary, to developing and implementing a sound stewardship program to finance the project, to the cost effectiveness of building supplies, and working in ministry with our own sub-contractors, to the ministry of construction where we touched the lives of every worker that came on the job.

We have been blessed, blessed, blessed… to be a blessing!"
