RMM held a prayer meeting at the site of the Rosedale International Center on Saturday, October 31. Giving up their Saturday sleep, a number of individuals came at 8 a.m. to see the progress in the renovation and pray for God’s provision for the financial needs of the project. Those in the group, all of whom have been involved in the project, included RMM office staff, volunteers at the Center, and several others.

The financial needs for the Center continue to be very real. The group looked at verses that gave examples of God’s provision as they asked for His help. Mim Musser, prayer coordinator at RMM, said she came away encouraged that God is well able to provide and added that she felt personally challenged by verses about sacrificial giving.

In the coming weeks, representatives from RMM will be traveling to CMC churches to speak about involvement in the Capital Campaign fundraising.

Rejoice with Us! A Capital Campaign Intercessors Update
June 30, 2009 | by Mim Musser

I am happy to inform you of a significant milestone (and a wonderful answer to prayer) reached in the Capital Campaign. In April I asked you to pray for $500 K by Conference in July. We reached that goal this month! To date we have gifts, pledges and savings equal to $554,400 which is equal to the amount we paid for the property! We are so grateful to God, to those who gave, and to you our intercessors who helped to pray it in.

Conference sessions start on July 23. Do you suppose God could bring that figure up to $1 million by then? That’s not much time, but we are praying for a capital campaign in which the funds will be raised and the work accomplished with less effort and in a shorter span of time than seems logical.  

 Let’s ask Him to do it!

Thanks for praying!

East 5th Ave Renovations Update
April 20, 2009

The process of turning a tired old nursing home into a vivacious missions training center is well under way! Groups have been coming from all over the CMC family to lend their time and talents to demolition and construction. Many have given financially as well, and we say a big Thank You!

The progress is apparent throughout the building. The front entrance have been jack hammered away, making room for a larger dining room and entranceway. Inside, fresh white pipes line several of the ceilings, and new cement block patch holes in the walls. Much more has been accomplished as well, and gives us excitement about the end result: A training center to reach the nations.

We need experienced tradesmen and skilled crews to help install drywall, trim, carpet, tile, and suspended ceilings. Contact Bob Stauffer, the project manager at 614-256-4350 for details and scheduling.
