You are invited to the dedication of the congregation's new facilities. Texas CEF provided the financing for this new congregation to buy their first building. They used their funds and sweat-equity to refurbish the interior. The dedication is scheduled for 2 PM on Sunday, February 22, 2009.
The multipurpose room (left side of picture), which can seat 600+ for worship and over 400 in a table configuration, is the centerpiece of this new building which also includes large rooms for adult education, youth, and children's ministry, in addition to kitchen and other support areas (right side of picture).

Contractors prepare the forms in anticipation of pouring the slab for the congregation's new 10,700 square foot fellowship and education building. The transit and precision laser ensure that everything is square and level.
Texas District Church Extension Fund is able to provide financing to these congregations because more than 13,000 Texas District Lutherans have invested a part of their savings in church extension. These faithful stewards have entrusted $125 million to the church extension ministry to accomplish extending His Kingdom. We want to say thanks. We would like for you to help us connect to them, too. When you talk with fellow investors in your congregation suggest that they subscribe to Extension Extra. You will be helping them to see the good their investments are accomplishing.
