[Magdalen] New Worship Space

[Ginga Wilder]

Thank you, Ann.  At the 'roll out' meeting this past Tuesday, one of our
original members said, "Who among us could have imagined this back in
October 2012 when 7 of us gathered on our back porch to commit to
continuing as an Episcopal congregation!?"  True.  Great joy! The vision
statement we are using at this time reflects our hope for our faith
community: All are welcome + All are valued + All are loved.   It is not
really about a building, it's about the Body of Christ in this place.  The
building does allow us to have a place to gather and do ministry 24/7.
Right now we rent space for Sunday worship from a most generous United
Methodist Church.  When we have our new home, we anticipate growing.  It is
in the middle of downtown Summerville's commercial area (the back suite in
a CPA office) across from Town Square.  Let us grow forth in the name of
Christ!!

Amazing Grace!
