Worshipers from both denominations have been sharing Trinity church since October. In addition, the two congregations have met for combined services, with attendance topping 800. The $850,000 face-lift at Rehoboth should be completed later this month. Elizabethville Women's Institute lion lakes the 11 a.m. spot and Rehoboth takes 9 a.m. But, there have been a few joint services services over Christmas and Easter where the combined attendance topped 800. It's a relationship that has drawn the two congregations closer. "Basically, we're all in the same family", says Lockhart. Pastor Mike Abma, of Rehoboth, agrees. "We share common beliefs and we actually actually enjoy celebrating those together." He's optimistic renovations at Rehoboth will wrap up in the next couple of weeks, in lime for a first Sunday service on April 21 and a formal dedication dedication in early May. Abma says the option of building a brand new church on the outskirts of town was considered considered for a while, but in the end the overwhelming majority of church members preferred to stay put and expand.

Spacious aisles and daylight streaming in from large, clear windows give an inviting, open feel. Square footage has doubled, bringing the total floor area from 10,000 square feet to 20,000.

After three seasons worshiping worshiping under the same steeple the two congregations will always feel like family. "A pattern has been established established for a lot of co-operation in the future," says Abma.
