Our church building began as a horse barn on a 10-acre expanse of wooded land accentuated by giant live oak trees. It was later remodeled into a residence and again remodeled into a home for wayward boys. Waters Edge added another 1,000 square feet and once again renovated the entire structure bringing the total size to about 7500 square feet.
Today’s building consists of a combination sanctuary/fellowship hall, a kitchen, a lobby, handicap-accessible bathrooms, offices, and a conference room. Upstairs are children’s classrooms, a nursery, a viewing area with speakers, a library area, and a small kitchen.
An auxiliary structure houses our youth room with a separate storage area for lawn care equipment.
We posted on our narthex wall a drawing illustrating our campus with a beautiful new building. Unfortunately, we have put those pre-covid dreams on hold as we rebuild our congregation.
In Matthew 12, Jesus points out the nature of that family; “whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.” This describes the family at Waters Edge.
What a beautiful invitation this is! It speaks to the heart of our community—one that transcends biological ties and embraces all who seek to follow God’s will. Here, we are not just individuals; we are family. Each of us, regardless of our backgrounds or circumstances, is welcomed into this loving and supportive environment.
As we worship together today, let us remember that we are united as brothers and sisters in Christ. We are called to support one another, to share in each other’s joys and burdens, and to encourage one another in our faith journeys.
So, whether you are a long-time member or visiting for the first time, know that you are part of this family. Let’s open our hearts to one another and to God as we celebrate the love that binds us together.
Welcome to Waters Edge—where you belong!
Shalom
