Once the Actors finally vacated the rooms they had illegally occupied for 10 years, the church finally gained access and could plan for its use in ministry. The latest developments:

1) The RODNIK Counseling Center did light renovation to two offices and moved into the ground floor in June. It is already receiving more clients than ever, creating a closer link with the church's ministries, and ministering to our own church people.

2) The Business Center is also renovating an office, launching the Metamorphosis leadership training program this fall.

3) Pastor Valera is a professional artist, and the church has formed an Arts Committee to develop the remaining space for multipurpose use, including art galleries, conference rooms, reading room, workshop, etc., in order to evangelize and impact the community for Christ through these popular means. What a wonderful way to apply our Reformed worldview! God has placed us very visibly in the middle of the city, and these ministries will help us touch the lives of people who walk by our doors every day.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!! Please pray for us and spread the word that we need renovation funds to get this Ministry Center fit for use! Tax-free donations may be made to MTW for the Odessa church building fund, project #95990.
