On our first trip to Charlotte we really liked the South End district right outside of Uptown (center city/downtown area). With a lot to offer and being so close to the heart of the city we felt like this was the place. So while being here this time around we wanted get familiar with that area and the surrounding parts, South End, Dilworth, South Park, Myers Park, Sedgefield; all of this area connects and seamlessly runs together for one big community with diversity and culture! Several shopping centers, malls, neighborhood parks and a few Starbucks to choose from you will not run out of fun or your favorite coffee!
We were able to talk with and see a few different YMCA's about renting space, we also have come across several schools in the area that would be perfect places right in the heart of the neighborhoods but not a five minute drive to Uptown! The option to be in hotel conference suites is available as well as a few community centers so this area is not running short of options; just what is the right option?... This trip has not been short of dreaming either. We have seen several places that would work perfectly if had several million dollars and was in need of housing several hundred people!!! That day will come but let us not get ahead of ourselves!
God is in this we know, we just want to make the right decision based on his directing as we move forward in our planning of this amazing ministry adventure! Please continue to pray that we can hear from him and be moved by his guidance.
We will post again in a few days when we are back from the trip, giving some more insight to what the trip was like and some pictures of the area.
Much love to the Body and to the One,
"Live with a heart that loves to serve Christ and watch as the world changes for the better!"
