Tuesday, April 19, 2005 Dow: 10071.25 -16.26 STORY Volunteers, congregation build new church in two days 'God is blessing us in every way'

Spring is a time of renewal and new beginnings, and the congregation of Evansville Baptist Church is no exception this year. The group expects to be moved into their new church in May - the culmination of a dream in the works for decades.
Volunteers and church members push together to put up the first wall of the new church building.
[Click to enlarge]"The Lord's just blessed us with a new building," said Bro. Danny Griffin, the church's pastor.
While congregations may see new churches built on a regular basis, most of them don't see the building erected in two days. But that's exactly what happened at Evansville.
On March 11 and 12 volunteers from Dyer County and beyond came to the community to build a new church for Evansville Baptist. The Dyer Baptist Association Men's Ministry played a large role in the effort, said Bro. Griffin.
Members of the congregation at Evansville Baptist Church stand in the doorway of their new church. They expect to be in the new church by the first week in May.

There were 58 people willing to give their time and labor on Friday, and 103 people joined the effort on Saturday. Bro. Griffin said 22 churches were represented that weekend.
"There were people who took off work without pay" to help, said Griffin.

This is obviously the work of Satan trying to draw Jehovah's people away.
