Kelly’s Connection ~
During a recent trip to Alpine, Texas, Coletti and I chose to stay at the
historic hotel in town. It was for one night only and the hotel was a quaint
place with a beautiful lobby. The third floor guest room was small, but wellmaintained with all the amenities one would expect. There was one most
unusual addition that caught my attention. On the night stand by the bed I
noticed two pairs of ear plugs. I wondered, “what am I not supposed to
hear?” I assumed the walls must be thin and earplugs would help us sleep
through the noise next door. I hoped we would not have noisy neighbors and
could get a good night’s sleep. Surely the hotel manager did not anticipate
that one of us snored so loudly that we needed earplugs to sleep through the noise? Or did he?
About 2:00 in the morning, my assumptions proved incorrect. The earplugs were for the train noise
as it passed through town repeatedly blowing a very loud horn. I doubt the earplugs would have helped
given the intensity of sound and the fact that the train was only 40 yards from my bed. Other than the
unexpected wakeup horn, we had a good night’s sleep.
Now the spiritual story—I’ve noticed over the past months that my spiritual hearing has improved.
I hear God speaking to me more often and more clearly these days. Naturally, I’ve given thought to how
this came to be and recognize there are things that enhanced my spiritual hearing ability. I discovered
that there are things that, in life, are like spiritual earplugs; things that hinder our ability to hear God
speaking to us such as the obvious ones—busyness, laziness, and apathy.
To hear what God has to say, I find it helpful to get away from the busyness and put myself in a
quiet place to listen and pray. For me, it means getting up early before the demands of the day draw me
away. Sometimes God’s call to get up is like the train whistle—it can’t be ignored. I like to run at
sunrise, so when I run, I make an effort to listen to the Lord.
I find it helpful to confront my laziness by reading what God says in the Bible and listening to
biblically-based inspiring audiobooks. Yes, I said laziness. I find it easy to plop down in front of the
television, zone out and avoid doing my spiritual exercise.
It helps me to hear what God is saying by observing what God is doing around me. This usually
comes by listening to stories of what God is doing in the lives of my family at The Worship Place and
watching how God is blessing our church family as a whole. God is busy!
Sometimes God speaks in such a way that earplugs would not prevent me from hearing. But more
often I hear his voice when I remove the earplugs and turn up my spiritual hearing aids. Please join me
in practicing these spiritual disciplines. Together we can rejoice with one voice! Jesus said, My sheep
listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish;
no one can snatch them out of my hand. (John 10:27-28)
Gladly serving,

Staying Connected to Our
Congregation
Effective and timely communication is a key concern
for all churches. Whether we are sending out
scheduling changes due to inclement weather, passing
along prayer requests or reminding the congregation
of a meeting, it's important to stay connected. In the
days ahead you will receive a message via the phone
from one of our pastors using the phone tree system.
Be sure to give them feedback about this new
communication tool.

SPOTLIGHT ON
STAFF
Spotlight on a
Benevolence Recipient
Kathy Gallagher
Receptionist
COURT APPOINTED SPECIAL
ADVOCATES (CASA)
Every day in this country, 1,900 children become
victims of abuse or neglect, and four of them will die.
Every day. Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA)
for children is a network of 933 community-based
programs that recruit, train and support citizenvolunteers to advocate for the best interests of abused
and neglected children in courtrooms and communities.
Volunteer-advocates, empowered directly by the courts,
offer judges the critical information they need to ensure
that each child’s rights and needs are being attended to
while in foster care.
Volunteers stay with children until they are placed in
loving permanent homes. For many abused children, a
CASA volunteer is the only constant adult presence in
their lives.
Kathy and her husband, Jim, have been Sun City
residents for 9 1/2 years. They have three grown sons
and a beautiful 5-year old granddaughter. She enjoys
gardening, needlework, and reading. Kathy keeps the
front office running smoothly and attends to a myriad of
duties including greeting and assisting members and
visitors, answering the phone and directing calls,
maintaining the church calendar by scheduling rooms
and documenting setup details, ordering supplies and
assisting staff, trustees and lay leaders as needed.

Decisions from April 16, 2015 Trustee Meeting
*
Investments at Chisholm Trail made $4,100 interest in the first quarter of 2015.
Expenses this first quarter are less than last year. We have changed from a cash basis
to capitalization this year.
*
The balance of the note on the building will be a little over $400,000 after our payment this month.
*
Alternate Service Offerings Team has found available space at Cowan Creek on Sunday mornings at 10:30
a.m. It is possible to move the Praise and Worship service to that location and possibly also provide a Bible
study. The 8:15 service would continue and be a traditional worship. Kelly would preach for all four services
but a music leader and an AV team will be needed at Cowan Creek.
*
The Growth Forum last week was sparsely attended, but there were many good questions. A new FAQ sheet
will be created and on the website. More communication is planned.
*
Approval of Growth Study Team recommendations made last summer to not expand the sanctuary or the
parking lot due to the cost of over $1,000,000 for parking; it would be disruptive for use of the sanctuary; and
it would only handle growth for a few years.
*
The Policies & Procedures manual is under revision.
*
Kerry Kennedy announced that Nancy Snyder is the point person for information regarding the Israel trip. On
June 2nd a one hour presentation will be given by a representative of Collette Travel. The deadline for a
deposit is October 7th. The cost will be $4,099 per person and includes round trip air fare.
*
Special Friends will have a fund raiser on May 23rd from 5-7 pm. Tickets for the BBQ dinner are $10 per
person.
*
A committee was formed to research buying a bus for offsite parking or renting golf cars to carry attendees
from the parking lot to the Sanctuary.
Full minutes will be posted on the bulletin board and on the website. All are invited to attend the next trustee
meeting on May 21, 2015 in the Board Room.

A Word from Pastor Kelly on the Growth of TWP
God is faithful as He continues to draw new people to worship Him each week at The Worship Place. We
are so blessed that we are quickly running out of space at 811 Sun City Boulevard, while Sun City is set to continue
adding new homes on both the Hwy 195 and Ronald Reagan ends of the community.
We need a plan to accommodate growth for the next five to ten years to provide and care for the families who
come looking for church home where they can continue to worship and grow in their relationship with God. In
2010, we had an average of 532 attending on Sunday. In 2015, we currently have an average of 772 attending each
Sunday - a 45% growth in attendance in just over four years. To have such an opportunity and no plan is a missed
opportunity.
A God-honoring plan will make the most effective use of our current facilities and establish an additional facility
to provide ample space for new family members. In May 2013, TWP Board of Trustees enlisted a growth study
team to consider the feasibility of expanding the current sanctuary. The team concluded that expansion of the
sanctuary should not be considered without also simultaneously expanding the parking lot. To knock out the
sanctuary back walls, as the building was designed, would add approximately 140 seats but that would mean losing
the library, prayer room, and Jim Clayman’s office. The estimated cost to expand the sanctuary, parking lot, and
make other code enhancements to the sanctuary would exceed $1.5 million. The Trustees agreed that this is not the
best way forward.
We will add one or two more worship services this year. The day and time of these services are under discussion.
We are considering 10:30 Sunday morning services at Cowan Creek and Sunday afternoon services in the sanctuary
at 5:00. We will soon ask you via a survey to provide us your feedback so we can determine best options and
understand the associated implications.
The Board and your pastors will bring to the congregation a proposal for growth as soon as possible. We want to
include a strategic plan to help us continue doing what we have done for fifteen years—demonstrating our love for
God, reaching others for Christ, and loving our neighbors as ourselves. We are currently gathering information for
us to make a well-informed decision, including possibilities of land availability, about the life and future of our
church family for the next five years and beyond; the decision to be made (approved) by the congregation.
If the church family chooses to add another worship facility, we will remain one church with one Board of
Trustees. We will continue worshipping and studying together as we do now here at The Worship Place. Additional
pastoral and administrative staff will soon be needed regardless of the decision about an additional worship facility.
The focus of another facility is to address the future growth of Sun City and to minister to those who live in the
current growth area. Will you join me in praying for these most important strategic decisions?
Included below and on the following page is an abbreviated list of frequently asked questions (FAQs) regarding
our growth vision. Please review them prayerfully. The latest complete list of FAQs can be found on TWP website
(www.theworshipplace.org).
Blessings and grace to you all,
Pastor Kelly
TWP Growth Vision
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1.
Can we expand our sanctuary by taking down the back walls, even if we leave Jim
Clayman's office and the Sanctuary reception area as is? How much will this cost?
The back walls of the sanctuary were originally built to be removed for expanding the
sanctuary. A committee assigned by the Trustees to consider such expansion has
recommended that any expansion of the current facility should not be done without adding
requisite parking to accommodate the growth. The committee recommended that
because this option was extremely expensive per seat added and does not provide
sufficient long-term growth opportunities, TWP should not consider expanding the current
sanctuary and adding parking at this time. The Board of Trustees concurred with these
recommendations. In addition, even if financially feasible, only expanding the current
facility does not place TWP in a position of accommodating the Sun City growth and
ministering in the Sun City growth areas.

TWP Growth Vision
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
2.
How long will it take to implement this growth plan?
If adopted by the congregation, the implementation will occur in stages. We anticipate full
implementation will likely take approximately five years, but this is merely an estimate at this time.
3.
What is our current outstanding building debt? Who is our lender; what is term of the loan,
the interest rate, and is the rate fixed or floating?
As of April 2015, our current outstanding debt is approximately $400,000. We are far ahead on our
scheduled payments and at the current rate, may pay off the debt in 2015. Our 20 year loan of
approximately $1.5 million in 2011 is with Prosperity Bank. The interest rate is an annual floating
rate, with a floor of 3.75% and a ceiling of 9.99%. The current interest rate is 3.75% and it has never
varied more than a few tenths of a percent since origination. The loan was for the addition of the
Welcome Center, church office suite, chapel/choir room, and fellowship hall.
4.
Will the location of the new worship facility be in Sun City?
While this is our preference, the new facility will likely be located adjacent to Sun City in one of the
growth areas. We prefer the location be golf cart accessible. Possible locations are currently under
review.
5.
Will TWP members have the opportunity to vote on implementing the growth vision, and if so,
when?
Yes. TWP members will have the opportunity to vote on the implementation of the growth vision.
The TWP Constitution requires the membership to vote on decisions pertaining to the development
of real property or incurring any indebtedness thereon. The Trustees are gathering information
necessary for the congregation to make this decision and will present it to the church as soon as
possible.
6.
Why do we need to add another worship facility location?
TWP is experiencing significant growth. Attendance at our worship services has increased 45% in
just over four years to an average of 772 attendees per Sunday this year. There are now very few
comfortable seating options, significant traffic and parking issues, and at this capacity and rate of
growth, new attendees will be reluctant to stay or return to TWP. It’s now time to make a decision
on growth. Either we’ll become stagnant, not growing to meet the ever increasing long-term growth
needs in Sun City and surrounding areas, or we’ll respond to what we believe is God’s calling to
expand beyond our current location to love our neighbors, seek the lost, and be a sanctuary for
those in need.
7.
Will we remain ONE church under one Board of Trustees?
Yes. While we will be The Worship Place under the leadership of one Board of Trustees, we will
have two locations. Our Constitution, By-laws, and Statement of Beliefs will be the same for both
locations.
8.
Will separating the Church in two locations split the Church and be harmful to those in the
current congregation?
We will not ask anyone to attend a particular facility. We do anticipate that there will be a natural
attraction to the new facility by those living nearby. We do not see any harm to the current members,
only the benefits of reaching more people with the opportunity to worship in the great environment
we have at The Worship Place.
