We had the official Grand Opening of the Gator Wesley Foundation Student Center this weekend. And I will admit that I dropped the ball and didn't take ANY pictures! I'll try to get some of the building and add them in. We had over 150 people at the ribbon cutting ceremony and I would venture we had 250 people at the Consecration service. It was so much fun to have people who attended Gator Wesley/UUMC various years to come back. I especially had fun catching up and hanging out with some of my peeps from when I first moved to Gainesville. We had fun hanging out, eating, and just catching up on each others' lives.
Then on Sunday we had over 200 in attendence at our worship service and the majority of them stayed for lunch! I was in the church kitchen from 8:30 A.M. to 4:30 P.M! Talk about exhausted! But it was the good kind of exhausted. I love the work I do for the church and it is amazing to have that many people attending again. It's hard to believe that just a year or so ago we only had about 30 people showing up on Sunday mornings!
We are in for a long, wonderful road of ministry at Gator Wesley. Anyone ever in the neighborhood, please come join us and see the amazing things God is doing in our lives!
wow! BIG CROWD!!!!! That is awesome!!!!
