Dear Friend in Christ, I love the sanctuary where the church family that I pastor worships each Sunday. It is beautiful, and over the years guests have commented about what a nice church building we have at First Baptist Church. I’ve always enjoyed showing it to people who have stopped by the church during the week knowing that they will say nice things about the building. I am not alone in the pride I feel. The members of the church have sacrificially given of their time, talents, tithes, and offerings to help build, beautify, and maintain the buildings and it’s has been a source of satisfaction to them also.
