Past Trips:
Wethersfield, CT - Dec. 4-6, 2009
We were able to take a team of sixteen men to CenterPoint Community Church. CenterPoint recently leased a 4500 sq ft space they are converting into worship space. We helped them create a sanctuary, add two bathrooms, classrooms, an office, foyer, and gathering space. We were able to join with CenterPoint for worship on Sunday before returning home. CenterPoint hopes to begin using their new space for Worship Services for Christmas Eve. For more information about CenterPoint Community Church click here.
