Important Info:
Update on Land Deal
The deal with the land owners on Ustick near Can-Ada has “fallen through.” Both parties signed a Letter of Intent (LOI), agreeing to the terms, and then we signed a Purchase and Sale Agreement (PSA). We were awaiting the seller’s signature when we were informed they were walking away from the deal. The investment group that owns the property had a few individuals who wanted to hold on to the land. Although this was a surprise to us, it wasn’t to God! Next week, we will have more details regarding a plan to pray for Taking Ground as a church. Thanks for your continued prayers!
