Easter Sunday afternoon, the worship center transformation began. By Monday morning, the construction crews were already inside.

On the April 12 episode of Around McGregor, hosts Mark Bricker, Tamar Miller, and Christian Miller record from inside the construction zone on McGregor's first Sunday in Fellowship Hall. They walk through the full logistics of the transition: where to park, how the new valet entrance works, which nine life groups relocated and where, and how the Fellowship Hall projector setup (upgraded with equipment from the worship center) is making a difference for ministries already. They also talk through the Renew Phase 2 social media coverage, including the renovation Reel that became one of the most viewed in McGregor's history.

Beyond the renovation, this episode covers VBS 2026 Rainforest Falls volunteer recruitment at the Main Street table, the Arizona family mission trip informational meeting happening today after the last service in F130, the South Asia mission trip informational meeting next Sunday April 19 in F153, a prospective member class today in the Joy Annex library, and spring adult discipleship courses starting April 22 including a women's study through Colossians, a men's study through Micah, a midweek doctrinal study on the holiness of God, and an elective on revival in American church history. If you are navigating your first Sunday in the new space or just getting your bearings on everything McGregor has going this spring, this episode covers the ground.
