Blesses Ground for Building Addition |
The
Meadowcreek United Methodist Church has broken ground on a new addition
to its current Sanctuary Building.
Collinsville, OK, November 1, 2012: The Meadowcreek United Methodist Church
held a groundbreaking ceremony on Sunday, October 21st outside its current
facility to celebrate the construction of a new addition. The new building
will help the church strengthen its vision to create fellowship and to
better serve the congregation and the community of Collinsville. Pastor
Brian Mangan led the blessing ceremony and encouraged members of the congregation
to join him in breaking ground. Construction is currently underway.
Meadowcreek United Methodist Church is located at 14205 East 146th Street
North in Collinsville. The Methodists began their presence in Collinsville
in 1899, and was the first congregation to form in the community. The
current Sanctuary Building is their third and was built in 2003 on 10
acres east of town as part of a three building site plan. The new expansion
will enlarge the Nursery and provide enough space for a Fellowship Hall,
flexible classrooms, and a kitchen facility. "There are over 22,000
people living within 5 miles of our church. Forty-one percent are below
age 29 and nearly half of the households have children under the age of
18. So with this project, we aren't just building a building. We are developing
a ministry tool that will help us reach and disciple young families living
in our area," says Pastor Brian.
