LIVE: GA VS. TRINITY MADISON POAGUE-
Closing arguments are now underway in the murder trial of former pageant queen Trinity Poague, accused of killing her boyfriend’s 2-year-old son. Prosecutors and defense attorneys are delivering their final arguments before the case goes to the jury.
One year. One year ago this evening not too long from now, we would helplessly stand by and watch this beautiful sanctuary be consumed by fire, along with the education and nursery wings, in a matter of just a few short hours despite the hard work of our local and surrounding area fire departments. We were heartbroken, devastated, and in complete shock as we witnessed our building fall to ruin. We prayed, stood by one another, hugged. We began to reminisce. As we would come to learn over the next days and weeks, so many people had special memories in this building. Marriages, celebrations of life, baby/child dedications, VBS, special music programs, and numerous other life events. But the most important memories shared talked about encountering Jesus here. What a special place. So, how would we move forward?
But God.
By God’s grace, His church is alive and well in Abbeville. And not only that, but thriving! Praise the Lord! He is doing a great work here! What was meant for ruin has turned to resolve. Of course, there are hard and overwhelming days. But in unity, we are moving ahead. There is no other option. God has been so faithful to provide what we need. What a blessing it is to have our Family Life Building! Our community has loved us well and been so very generous. We are grateful to be where we are. We know how important it is to have this building back for our town and our friends. It’s important to us, too, and we are dedicated to complete that task. One day, we will again have a sanctuary & church building to gather and worship together as the body of Christ, and we are diligently and carefully working towards that goal. Until that time comes, we press on to do the work of the Lord, trusting in His plan, bringing Him glory, and loving others as we have been called to do. We invite you to join us. There is room for you! We meet at 10:30 am in our Family Life Building for worship on Sundays. We hope you will join us! Soli Deo Gloria!
