Belize Mission Coffeehouse Update

 
 

BELIZE MISSION COFFEEHOUSE
Saturday, March 15 | 7:30-9:30 p.m.
Admission: $20 per person

The Belize Mission Coffeehouse brought down the house thanks to the incredibly talented performers that came together for an evening of inspiration and praise.  You can still support the Belize Mission through the end of March by making a monetary donation here.

Your support will help us complete work on the multipurpose Church & Community Center in Belize. This year, our mission team will focus on finishing construction of the interior of the new building including the balcony and stage area. Click below to view a rendering of the facility.

CONSTRUCTION ON CANTERBURY ROAD

 
 

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ

WATER LINE CONSTRUCTION ON CANTERBURY ROAD

UPDATE ON ROAD CONSTRUCTION

The ongoing road project to install new water lines in the Budleigh Neighborhood will continue along Canterbury Road one block at a time until it reaches Wade Avenue.

Currently, Carolina Civil Works is working on the 1500 block of Canterbury Road. We have been in contact with them to discuss the best route to access the church. Please be mindful of the following:

  • Outside of the workday (9 a.m. — 5 p.m.) and during the weekend, traffic may travel on Canterbury Road without interruption. It will be slow going and drivers must navigate around signage and construction.

  • The intersection of Lewis Farm Road and Canterbury Road will be closed 2/24-2/25. reopening Wednesday, 2/26. Moving forward it will be best to avoid Canterbury Road from Wade Avenue to the church. Paving of the 1500 block of Canterbury Road should take place within the week. The best way to approach the church is via the Glenwood Avenue. 

Please know we are aware of the situation. We are in communication with the city and we will keep you updated as we get information. Please be patient, drive slowly and with caution and allow extra time for travel.

St. Michael’s Gift to RALT

St. Michael's has received some nice press covering our recent gift to the Raleigh Area Land Trust (RALT), a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing permanently affordable homeownership opportunities for first-time homebuyers. With a $300,000 donation from St. Michael’s, we have forged a historic partnership to tackle Wake County’s affordable housing crisis. RALT will build 18 permanently affordable homes in the Idlewild neighborhood. This marks the first-ever collaboration between a faith-based organization and a community land trust in the county.

To learn more about our gift, read the Rev. Greg Jones' recent epistle.
