The

The I'm I'm Hi, everyone today to our annual Vision Sunday service.

I'm here at the brand new, beautiful Woodlawn campus building

that is opening for the first time next Sunday, September 11th.

After 10 years of being portable at Woodlawn High School and the BJCC,

our Woodlawn and Uptown family finally have a permanent home. And it's here at the site of the

former Gibson Elementary School, which was closed in 2010. And to preserve a part of the history

of the school and to honor this great community, our team used the bricks from Gibson Elementary

to frame the entrance of our new building.

And just look at how beautiful it is.

I wanna say a huge thank you to our staff team

and dream team led by Pastor Jamil Gillian

for their hard work that made this day a reality.

And I wanna thank you, the amazing people of Church of the Highlands,

for your generous and consistent giving

that allows us to build places of worship like this and to do it completely debt-free,

to God be the glory. We're also just weeks away from opening the newly renovated Grandview

Campus Auditorium, and our construction teams are now in full swing at the Alabaster campus building

which is set to open in the spring of 2023 and now our trustees and elders are focusing their

attention on buildings in Opelika, Oxford, and the Shoals. It's so exciting to see what God is

doing in and through our church but again I want to thank you for all you do.

Thank you for believing in the vision God gave us and for doing your part to make a difference in our generation.
