Church Visit, "Principled Leadership," Fletcher UMC

Last Sunday, Fletcher UMC dedicated its long awaited new building. It is asolutely beautiful, styled perfectly for its context. Bruns Construction seems to have done a really nice job for them. Together, they incorporated some special touches that you really need to check out if your church is considering: in-kind labor laid a porcelain tile Gathering Place, a coffee bar doubles on the other side as a serving line for the multi-purpose room (a great design, I think), and just the right finely appointed touches that completely remove the metal building feel. Russ Tichenor and his wife Michelle have done an even better job leading, however. In just a short time he has really grown to be their pastor. In typical Russ style, he let the dignitaries play many of the key roles in the service. Various groups from the church were well represented. You never have to shy away though from the mantle God has placed on your shoulders. You have earned it with your faithfulness. Fine job all the way around Fletcher.
