Family & Friends,

Last Sunday at Imago Dei Church I looked out a large window of Franklin High and it turned into a parable.  I left the auditorium to pray after it was announced that we were trading church buildings with Portland Foursquare. The back stage hallway was messy from the remnants of a play including a large wad of fake money.  Then I looked out a huge window where I saw a bright sun, a soccer goal and two large intertwining trees. In the parable the window slats turned into prison bars.  It was time to leave our rented home of four years.  The large trees were the two churches.  The soccer goal was our goal to be downtown and reach the city.  Our smaller church building (Evangel) is a perfect size for Foursquare.  Their large building can hold us beautifully in the center of the city.  But, we need money to meet our budget, pay for moving costs/upgrades and it can’t be fake money!  God’s blessing like the sun is the only way both churches can grow. I prayed with the sun warming my face and making me confident that God will show up to write another chapter in His story at Imago Dei.
