Vision Award
We were invited to the Belmont Mansion near Dupont Circle last night. What a house! Wow. Thirty foot ceilings. The artifacts alone had to be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. The mirror over the fireplace must have been two hundred square feet.
What a crib! Amazing hizzy.
We were invited by the Committee of 100 and given a Vision Award for the coffeehouse we're building on Capitol Hill. Here's what the plaque said:
For its demonstration of the potential for imagination and creative energy to give new life and purpose to a forlorn building by envisioning a community benefit where others saw blight. The revitalization of 201 F Street, NE, the long neglected, vacant building into the heart of a new vibrant coffeehouse and community center for National Community Church stands as a symbol of the value of adaptive reuse.

Wahoo! Congrats NCC. I love this church and am super excited to see how God is going to use Ebenezer's above and beyond our wildest imaginations and dreams. Praise Him from whom all blessings flow!

I like that- "envisioning a community benefit where others saw blight." God's rockin this Hill!
cool beans. God's got good ideas.
"...National Community Church stands as a symbol of the value of adaptive reuse"...or shall we say "symbol of the value of the redeemable..." Hmmm... that'll preach. :)
