Building the Body of Christ, Changing Miami
God is always calling us forward in faith. We believe that just as God has been faithful in the past and in the present, He will continue to guide and provide in the days to come. We could simply rest on the amazing accomplishments that have already occurred, but that is not what Jesus taught us to do.
We don’t want to wait on the shallow shore for Jesus to come back. As long as we have LIFE, we will follow Jesus out into the deep, hearing His voice, and spreading His word. It’s not about building buildings. It’s about building lives, faith and families. We want as many people as possible to hear “well done, good and faithful servant.” And that includes you…

HH Architects did it again! Having a vision for what you want is one thing… having someone else capture the vision and put skin on it is quite another. Pastor Pedro and myself cannot be any more excited to show you these updated designs as we truly feel we’ve made a tremendous breakthrough in interpreting the CCk style.
Next we will enter into exterior materials, interior design and audio/visual planning. Please pray for us as we need the wisdom of the Lord to guide us through in making His house.

Can there be something like “too much fellowship?” When it comes to building a building there sure can be! The act of creating a awesome space for the CCk body to fellowship is of great importance to us, and HH Architects have done a wonderful job leading us through a very complicated process. They have been exceptionally patient in showing us our “dream space” but then turning around and given us the “reality check.” Whoa! That’s how much it costs to add two walls and a roof?! Bad idea! Bad idea! HH then showed us how to put the project into reverse gear and try again.
Below are two images showing our latest slap-in-the-back-of-the-head. Admittedly, in our desire to add fellowship/Cafe space we blew the budget by 18 miles… so after repenting and begging the Lord for a solution, we are inching closer to what is turning out to be an exciting design solution to a very difficult “Main Entry” problem.
Please continue to pray for wisdom and guidance as we work through this phase of the design. Also, we want to hear from you. Leave a comment as we are always digging for creative ideas.
The image below shows the original, expanded fellowship area. Unfortunately, this design took us way past budget.
The image below shows the hand-rendered architect sketch with the suggested solution. Pretty cool huh?
