July 14, 2010, Indianapolis—The Indianapolis Triangle house formerly located at 1435 Montcalm Street was moved to its new location at 1450 Rembrandt Street.
A campus division women's household lived in the house since last fall. They moved in after two years of major renovations performed largely by visiting Action teams. In late 2009, a commercial developer offered to buy the property as part of an initiative to build student housing near the IUPUI campus. After negotiations with the People of Praise, the developer agreed to cover the cost of relocating the house about a block away, across the street from Walt and Pam Seale's home. The women's household is planning to move back into their home—with a new address and a new basement—before the school year begins.

We used to sing this song "in the old days" -
"The move is on, my Lord, the move is on."
Little did we know...
Glory to God!

None of us two years ago on the first trip could ever have thought this possible. We've heard about faith moving mountains, now it moves houses.

Good for you guys! When I first read the headline, I naturally thought that you meant that you changed houses. Whoa! I can't believe you got the company to move the house for you.
And I am sure that it is a blessing, because it had to make the POP presence more noticeable!
God can sure work in strange ways.
May God Bless you in your endeavors.

I am always so impressed with the way the Lord works! I appreciate hearing all that is happening in Indianapolis and know that even in Corvallis, OR we are with you in spirit and can pray more effectively for you as we hear how the Father is "moving" you.
