As I write these words I am finally believing that spring will return to Minnesota this year. It was a wonderful winter for those of us who enjoy our cross country skis. But the snow, cold and ice made attending our annual celebration a challenge. Those of you who braved the weather enjoyed the chance to see the beautiful new space we helped to fund at Walker Community United Methodist Church. It was wonderful to witness the work that can be accomplished with help from the contributions of our generous members.
Our Spring Call is an equally compelling project. Discovery United Methodist is a growing church in the heart of a growing community. The need to improve their space for infants and toddlers is self-evident, but crucial to continuing their growth. As we enter our 126th year the legacy of generous giving of West Metro Builders will turn another dream into reality.
Finally, your board of directors is working to move our organization forward. Three months we began work on developing steps to chart our future. In the coming months we will learn more about what is working and what we can improve to take the Builders ahead in this vital ministry as partners with churches in “creating sacred space”. We ask for your continued support in thought, prayer and action was we continue to raise funds and build hope.
