A very big THANK YOU to everyone who is helping to paint our lovely new Church x
Pastor's Wife's Piece!
I hope you are finding this weekly bulletin helpful and informative.
It was suggested we produce one as several people were asking about the building work and fund-raising progress.
If you have any suggestions relating to the Church building that might be included in this Bulletin please let Jacqui or myself know by email.
Dios te bendiga (God bless you).

Building Update!
We are so blessed! God has given us a building that week by week is being transformed from a dusty old warehouse into a beautiful Church which we pray will glorify Jesus!!
The ‘Restroom’ areas are taking on personality and interest.
The creche and stationery office have doors and windows and more areas around the building have being painted by some of our own folk, such as the entrance ceiling and the railings leading upstairs from the office entrance lobby.
Kids Church beautifully painted with brightly coloured bean bags (above).
Sunday Lunches at El Nacional
Please continue to support TCF and El Nacional – book lunch for the next few weeks.
They have been kind in offering the room for FREE!
Other News!
First service in new Church building is planned for Sunday 1st September!
Church website & Facebook page are in the process of being updated to reflect the changes. People will also still be able to find us under the name Torrevieja Christian Fellowship for some time to come.

When a project like this is undertaken the challenges and strains are many and varied for all concerned.
I appreciate so much all those who have ‘put their backs’ into working hard to make this a reality. You know who you are! Without members of Salt Church being involved, this project would not be finished.
We still have a way to go and more help will be needed with painting etc. soon! Watch this space!
God bless, Chris
Building Update!
The toilet facilities are progressing well with floor tiles laid and additional ‘sit down’ cubicle walls now built!
The walls for a Creche and a photocopier/stationery storeroom are going up as you can see in the photo above.
Initially we thought this work would be done after we moved in as part of phase 2. On reflection it was decided that in order to minimise further mess and disruption it should start now.

Our EGM on 13th July voted in our new name as SALT CHURCH with 73.3% in agreement. I have written a separate detailed congregational letter sent to everyone on our e-mail list.
This marks another milestone in our journey to a new location, a new building, a new vision and now a new name.
We want to impact the whole region for Jesus, to be the SALT of the earth to those around us and call them to join the body of Christ His CHURCH……SALT CHURCH! Amen. Chris

Philippians 3:13-14 …one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead. I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
Pastor's Piece
Vision is the received revelation of God.
It’s usually a journey, not just a destination.
Vision requires faith and trust in God. We do not know the future BUT He does. I believe we can perceive it and receive it spiritually and act on it in the here and now. This is what we are doing. It’s exciting. Keep moving forward.
Chris
Vision (noun)
1. the faculty or state of being able to see.Power of seeing, observation, perception, visual perception
2. the ability to think about or plan the future with imagination or wisdom.
Imagination, creativity, inspiration, perception, breadth of view, foresight, discernment, far-sightedness.
