Many of you have already heard that NLC is partnering with the Housing Authority of Fort Myers to provide a brand new playground to children in the Sabal Palms Community of Fort Myers. The city was given a grant for the actual playground equipment and we have committed the volunteers for the demolition of the old one, and the building of the new.
This Saturday a group from NLC, as well as employees from Village Land Clearing and Fill, met to watch the old playground come down. We showed up with tools and the expectation to work all day long disassembling this playground, but to our surprise it was DONE in just under two hours. We didn’t have to use one tool, we just stood by and watched, then picked up some small garbage at the end. Village Land and Fill was a HUGE blessing! They donated their time and equipment to lighten our load, and help out this community.
I am so grateful for Tim Herrmann who was able to over-see the project. Buckey, thanks for getting Village to donate their time, and Mike and Josh, you did a fabulous job organizing as well!!
April 16th is the official NEW Playground Build Day. WE NEED YOU to get involved and help to make this possible. Send us an e-mail at Next Level for more info! It is an honor to serve our community with all of you!
Are you interested in reaching out in your community to share the love of God with those that are outside of the church?? If so, we would love to help you with fresh ideas or or assisting in starting Community Service Connection Groups in your community as well! E-mail me or call Next Level Church!
