Last night at Victory Church we had our fourth business meeting in nine years of ministry! The reason for the business meeting was to vote "yea" or "nea" on 20 acres of land on Scott-Troy Road in O"Fallon.
I stood before our people in our administrative offices and shared "why" we were there and then I said these words, "All those in favor of purchasing 20 acres of land on Scott Troy Road in O'Fallon for $---,---.00, let it be know by saying "yea"."
I cannot describe to you what happened next. Almost immediately after I posed the vote there was a resounding "yea" all in unison! Following that there was a loud applause! Following that I was completely overwhelmed with many different emotions; I clapped, I shouted "yeah," I laughed, I cried, and then walked over and gave my wife a BIG hug!
What an awesome God we serve! To God be the glory for great things He has done! (By the way, there were no "nea's".)
Congratulations Bro. Jon! We are so excited for you guys!
