Excitement is building at Olive on two fronts. First is the Harvest Weekend that begins tonight. Dinner is at 5 p.m. and the meeting starts at 6:30 p.m. Our evangelist is Scott Dawson and our guest soloist is Luke Garrett. Please invite your unchurched friends to join us tonight, Saturday night and during services Sunday morning and evening. These are going to be great days.

Another item that is gaining momentum is the 2020 Implementation Report. The team presented the recommendations to the Budget Committee on Wednesday evening. Last night we presented it to the Deacon Family. Both groups affirmed the actions unanimously. Steve Harrod and his group will present the report to the church for approval on Palm Sunday evening, March 16.

In the report you will see plans for the Ministry Village which includes the Health and Hope Clinic, counseling ministry, housing for the women’s and men’s ministries and much more. Our outreach into local apartment complexes is an important piece of this recommendation. You will also hear of plans to renovate the high school and middle school ministry areas. New paved parking is being added for 400 cars. Drawings are also included for the sports fields as well as the paving of the access road to Whitmire Drive. You do not want to miss the presentation March 16 in the 6 p.m. service. I have included a map for you to see the overall master plan for the campus. The first recommendation calls for a $2 million investment in this plan. Be praying about your part in all of this. Together we can make it happen as God provides the way.
