(Audio: Español, Inglés) ->Original

RESUMEN: Glenn Knowles, the architect working on the new sanctuary for the León de Judá Congregation, gave a presentation about the symbolism of the building's design. The lower brick section represents the natural, human part of life, the upper reflective metal section represents the spiritual realm, and the middle section, which blends brick and metal tones, represents the Christian spiritual experience. The facade of the building represents the life of Jesus, and entering the sanctuary requires passing through Jesus and his ministry. The sanctuary will have a specially-designed acoustic ceiling and modern seating. The church is asking for donations to fund the project, which must be completed soon due to legal requirements. The current low interest rates and lower cost of materials make this the best time to build. Every person who makes a promise to donate will receive a special, inscribed brick.

The speaker is encouraging people to make generous faith promises for a church building campaign. He emphasizes that contractors are more flexible due to the lack of work, and urges people to think beyond the present moment and have faith that God will bless them in the future. He cites biblical examples of the widow of Sarepta, King Jehoshaphat, and Haggai to support his message. He asks people to fill out their pledge cards and make their promises, even if they don't have the money now. He asks people to take a brick as a symbol of their commitment and pray for the success of the campaign.


I want to invite someone very special who is with us, and it is the architect Glenn Knowles and give a big round of applause for our architect Glenn. And Glenn is with his daughter Alexandra here today and Glenn is a miracle for this congregation because God brought him to me as he has always brought so many things, when we started this campaign, or when we started this idea that the Lord put in me years ago, I I said, Lord, you are going to have to find a generous, Christian architect who is committed and of good quality. And Glenn God brought him, he practically put him in front of me. I don't have time to let you know what Dio did. And Glenn has taken this project with such a generous heart, saved us hundreds of thousands of dollars and given so generously, brethren, that I can't thank him enough.

And if God has been providing that way, brethren, parting the Red Sea continually, He's going to part the sea yet before us. I want to ask Glenn to come in here.
